Really? None of the other tetras have that bump on its belly and it's staying way smaller than the others

when they're smaller the distended stomach from eating is more apparent. Keep an eye on him, but to me that's what my neons look like when they eat a little too much. You could try feeding a little less.
 
Ok, thank you very much
