My EBJD seems really bloated today and I am worried about her. Anyone have any ideas as to what may have caused this and what I can do to fix it? My tank is a 46 gallon, fully cycled with 10 ppm nitrates. She has been eating everything readily. I've fed her hikari cichlid pellets and some tropical flakes, occasional dried or frozen bloodworms. The only thing that has changed since is yesterday I switched the tank over to sand but she seemed to take the switch easily and has eaten since then. Temperature is at 78 degrees. Attached are some pictures.

Yep that's what I did a couple days ago and she recovered pretty quickly :) I was afraid it was a parasite because my fish get pretty regular helpings of peas, she must have just missed her weekly portion. Thanks!
