Are you saying the problem is that the PT trigger has overstuffed himself, and he needs to be on a bit of a diet, but you still need to feed other fish?
If so, try target feeding with a syringe.

thanks he has become really lazy and hides behinds the rocks now. He used to swim around and bully everyone now he is the exact oppsite. he skin looks good not breathing heavy but is a little pale than normal thanks for the help.

He is very likely being picked on himself if he is hiding all the time behind rocks.
