Warty angler breathing heavy. Please help

[Joshp_13]

I purchased a warty angler about two days ago. They fed him a an unthawed krill for us to see. When I got him home I put four ghost shrimp in with him the next day. Last night he ate all four shrimp, now this morning he is breathing heavy and almost looks like he is trying to vomit every now and then. Is this just normal for digestion?
I tried uploading a video but it won't let me
My tank is 10 gallon
Salinity 1.025
Temp 78

Water parameters?

Ammonia is at zero
Nitrite zero
Nitrate 5 ppm

He is moving around the tank now. However it looks like one of the shrimps whiskers is sticking out of his mouth.

Which is no surprise.

Should I be worried that he over ate or that something is wrong? If he's moving around do you think he will be ok?

Should be fine. However he may try to consume animals that are almost his size so care in selecting tank mates is important.

Ok. Thank you for your help. I really appreciate the advice.
