This picture was taken right after he ate. Is this ok or is he over eating? His belly always gets like tis after he eats its not just occasionally

If the food is floating at the top of the water it might be a possibility that he is in jesting some air as he eats. This is not a problem if he is passing it back out . What and how are you feeding him ?

yeah my gsp got an air bubble and was out for about a week. i actually had to squeeze it out of him. then he farted it out. (if im lying im dyeing)
if his belly is lumpy its ok but if its like a bubble it can be bad

my striped dogface will get the exact same way - fully stuffed from a big meal. these guys will eat and eat and eat - it's almost like they don't know when to stop. I just try to keep him from eating too much. I only hand feed mine now to keep him from overeating.

I feed him krill,prawn, and mysis. he also eats the angel formula that I put in there to feed my koran. his belly gets lumpy and only stays like that for maybe at the most a few hours

Try feeding smaller amounts at a time and more often and see if that helps . I have always fed my fish a few smaller meals a few times a day .
