Your wrasse looks like my Puffer after it eats. That sucker sucks down more food than I thought possible. Yesterday it devoured 20 krill 1 mussel 2 shrimp and 1 scallop that was part of a Rod's Food Predator blend feeding. Even my wife calls it a fat pig of a puffer.

Update on this.... I normally feed a decent amount twice a day. I decided to skip feeding and see what happened. I didn't feed for 2 days and his stomach slowly shrunk to normal appearance. Yesterday I fed twice and he looks like he could pop now. lol either my food is causing some bloating or he's just a fat pig. Either way I'm much less worried now. I think he just eats too much

I love a simple, noninvasive solution to a problem. :)
