Bloated sunburst platy?

[calebmoon16]

I recently got it last Sunday and ever since then the poor fish looks like it has a huge belly.. I have previously had these before in an older tank a while back and don't ever remember them being that big. He seems to swim around fine and is happy so I don't know if the fish is pregnant (it's the only one in the tank) or bloated or what? Please help thanks!

Are you sure that it's a male fish?

I'm actually not sure so I don't know :/ it's gone down since then and it's doing fine now. It's still just a little bloated but it looks somewhat better.

Your Platy

Hello cal...

Keep the tank water clean with large, frequent water changes and feed a little minced garlic. Good fiber source to keep the fish regular. It's a high vitamin and natural antibiotic source. You can't feed a better herb to your fish. Spice World has a very good product. No additives. My fish love it.
