Well i have a female roseafascia that i've kept for about 2 months now.

It's really aggressive and is looking a lil' but more male-ish (if there's such a word) now.

Initially it was very wrasse shape, gorgeous and slim. oh btw, i QT-ed it for 4 weeks. initially it was skinny despite feeding so i prazi-ed the food and it was fine after that.

it has been fine for about 1 and a half month, and now all of a sudden, it's extremely fat. like really bursting, much like a pregnant fish.

it eats well, it poops well and is perfectly fine psychologically (as far as fishes go..) and physically.

what could it be? is it just eating way much more than it should? i feed 2 times a day and all fishes get equal share of food and it's the only one looking so fat. i feed pellets in the morning and mysis in the evening.

could it be internal parasites? where could it come from?
 
How is it swimming?

perfectly normal. swimming fine, eating fine, chasing other fish fine, it's just except for the grossly giant stomach.

could it be gravid? LOL. i dunno that's the only logical thing in my mind. coz it's female, and i have other male wrasses. it could be pregnant but just not fertilised?

really dunno man.

Does it look swollen?
