I have an 3in long albino channel cat. He is getting a around belly on him. Is it because i am feeding him to much. It is a little dark colors belly.

can you take a picture? mine ate good but didnt get excessively round. and pretty much stayed the same pink color as the rest of him. he became a pretty violent thrasher at 7" and was traded for something else.
My blue channel cats has the same thing. Some of the ones I have had over the years have gotten the round bellies and some haven't.

it is perfectly normal. If you look at a full grown channel cat, their stomach extends so far down it looks like it is pregnant.

on the topic of his belly being round, you should check if your missing any fish. Before I learned the hard way that's the way mine looked after a tiger barb would disappear.
