bloated red wag

[sith j]

my red wag gets bloated and then goes away, a couple of days later shes bloated again, goes away and gets bloated again, you get the point. ive started feeding peas but just recently. not sure why this is happening. havent had the fish a month and pretty sure shes not giving birth, could it be a parasite or dropsy. she eats and is happy

My loaches do that because they are pigs. How much is she eating?

once a day, and doesnt really gorge like the rest of the fish
