It seems my minnow is pregnant. Either that or is eating too much. I actually got this one for free. My daughter liked it, and the LFS said that they aren't allowed to carry fathead minnows anymore and gave me the fish for free.
I don't know much about minnows or how they breed but it's possible she was pregnant when we got her but it seems she got big rather quickly. I know I over fed a few times :( but none of my other fish look fat. Any ideas? Sorry for the picture. Hope you can see it.

I honestly don't see anything wrong. If you are really concerned about bloating then try feeding a blanched pea and if it's not bloated then you just cleaned their digestive tract anyway.
