ok i have a lace cat(at least thats what it was called at walmart) and today when i looked in the tank his belly is huge, he is all stomach he is only about an inch and a half long and his stomace is probablh 3/4 and inch wide and a quarter of an inch below where i think it should be. what might be wrong i havent been over feeding im sure because all the food is gone fairly quickly. i did ad about 10 ghost shrimp could he be eating those his mouth looks to small to me. any clues ideas or insight would be helpful.
 
In the synodontis family? I'd monitor for any off behavior, but likely, there's nothing wrong. Synos tend to have enormous bellies--my husband calls my UDC 'the fat *******s', because they all have huge bellies. Very normal.
