chubby fishie

Question
I have a male fighting fish, he's almost a year old. I noticed that his kind of fat now. Is that a bad thing? What should I do? Feed him less?

Answer
hmmm, depends, he could be bloated or constipated, fast him for 24hours then feed him 1 maybe 2 pea's (cooked) then fast him for another 24hours and see if he improves, also yeah feed him a bit less.

dont worry fasting will do no harm, they can go upto 2 weeks without eating in the mating season.

he could start becoming ill soon, if he does let me know (watch out for him not eating after the fasting)
