Couldn't resist taking a couple of shots of my Spotted Mandarin fish "Paisley". It's not often he stays around to have his photo taken.
Does my bum look big in this??

Good God.. What are you feeding that thing??? Alpo??? Wow definately looks like a nice fat and happy fish.. 
I've told you before that Paisely is the most rotund mandarian I've seen but he has gotten downright obsese. lol, he looks more like a puffer than a mandy at this point.
Actually I was looking for the streach marks near her belly.:22_yikes: All I can say is good job..
When he bends slightly he has more tyres than Michelin man!!! He's only living off the tank. He doesn't take any frozen food (that I've seen). I wouldn't mind but he hasn't even tried the flatworms yet and that's one reason why I got him (and because I wanted one) he cleared all the flatworms at my LFS. Needless to say I've stopped adding pods to the tank as something tells me there's enough at the moment!!!!
Um yeah! I'd say there are enough. I'm trying to remember what you did...was it to add them for 2 months before getting him? I'm considering one down the road and would like to keep it even partially as well fed as your's.
As soon as the tank was up and running I started adding pods. I'd chuck half in the sump and half in the main tank. I think in the end I only did it for 2 months before I got him. Saying that though, I've had the majority of my rock for 3 years so that's probably got a lot of life on it.
I've got to admit though I am getting concerned with his weight. How do you put a fish on a diet???
