Can someone tell me why my electric yellow has a oversized abdomen. I got it at the fish store and it was eating normally everyday. But I went to an auction in Vancouver and friend took care of my fish. I was only gone 3 days and when i came back my Cichlid had a stomach as large as a pea. It's been 4 days now and i thought it would go away but it didnt. I asked my local fish stor about it and they said they didnt have an explanation for it so you guys are my last hope for figuring out what is wrong with my electric yellow. Please help me!!!!
Tank size:80 gal, set up one month ago
Food: Spinach, Cichlid pellets and galss worms
Length of time i have owned:2 weeks
other tank history: another 80 gal, 10 years
Fishes status: wont eat, swims in zig-zags, sinks to the bottom from time to time(probably beacause of the wieght of it's abdomen)
