Can a fish be obese? My yellow corris wrasse is a pig. He gorges hisself on everything available to eat. I just added 1000 pods to my tank (meant for my mandarin goby) and Im pretty sure the wrasse ate 300 of them right off. So, these are from a few minutes ago, poor quality i know hes camera shy. While im not unhappy that my fish happily eats everything offered, I am currious if he could eat too much. Thoughts?

My yellow corris is lil pig to lol:D
 
My halichoeres wrasses are suuuuuper fat as well. So are my tangs and Angels from nori and frequent feedings.

Anyway, my Vroliks, melanarus, yellow coris, lime green, and radiant wrasses do the same as yours. My banana wrasse does the same.

My fairy wrasses and leopard wrasses are all fat but not obese like the halichoeres...
 
Lol. I think its funny. He looks pregnant all the time!
