Hi,

I recently picked up 2 female boesmani rainbowfish from a LFS, the were kept in what seemed to be a 20 Gallon tank. I purchased them cause everything seemed to be fine with them, the only glaring thing was its body, it looked really, really full, or bloated. I figured they were just over fed, but now this is day 3 of having these 2 fish, and I am not sure what to think?

They look very fat in the body, compared to my other 3 I have, but their lengths are the same ~2in. Could they be stunted, is this normal, if its not is it reversible?
