chain loaches
Hi, I've had 6 chain loaches for about 2 months and have noticed that their bellies have developed a small pouch and kind of swollen. Is this quite normal or am I feeding them too much or the wrong type of food. They seem to be active enough and happy. Any help appreciated.
Thanks
Thanks

would you be able to show us a picture?
what do you feed them and how often?
also, if you are concerns thats its a health problem, can you tell us more about your tank - pH, temperature, harness, ammonia, nitrate, nitrite?

Twice a day is fine maybe just cut down the amount of food a little bit but to be honest I wouldnt worry.
They rarely get over 2.5" and can be fairly long lived, I think the longest I have had one is 6 years and that was already adult size when I got it.
