My midas blenny seems a little bloated in the stomach region. Is it sick or is that normal? Answers appreciated.

Actually, it looks a bit thin to me, especially the area right behind and above the gills. Any bloating you see may be internal organs and food showing through the body wall.

Ok, maybe I should feed it some.
I would feed it to satiation twice a day. Internal parasites can also cause a fish to lose weight, even if it seems to be eating well.
