fat fish

[barbarag]

I have a question is it possible to have fish that are too fat?

It depends on whether they have a mate or not....

 

[barbarag]

no mates

 

[robert]

Then definately...

Yes, fish can get too fat and end up with afflictions such as fatty liver disease or blockages in the digestive tract.

 

[barbarag]

oh no I better put them on a diet then

 

[barbarag]

They are gonna be so unhappy cause they are always yelling at me to feed them cause they are hungry and I am gonna have to plug my ears when they start crying cause I am starving them

I feed prepared food of clams shrimp and fish once a day, live brine shrimp once a day and algae strips 2 or 3 times a day . They eat all that I put in there in about 2 mins except for the algae strips. And as far as a video they make a liar out of me everytime because they act normal when I grab the video camera. I know you have heard that kids and pets will make a liar out of you every time .

I've learned through time. Moderation, but yes I have a fat and happy Sailfin.

I have a fox face that has a little bit of girth to him but he seems happy when he is feed a lot and kinda a jerk when he's not. Plus my cleaner wrasse always looks pregnant after eating but looks good the next day I really don't think it's a problem unless your over feeding and a twice a day feeding is not. I only feed my guys once a day but I have a real large tank with a lot of live pods and stuff for them to snack on.
