Dear goh
This fish has not bulked(hokkien call it kiat) but has fatten only through grossly distension of its lower abdominal area.If you were to look at it from the top,I'm sure it shows a pot belly effect(very much like a pearl scale tikus)Because of its ballooning effect over a short period,the color pigments may not be able to keep pace with its expansion and thus a relative loss of color is inevitable.Cut down on its number and amount of feeding and let it growth proportiontely if not over pumping may cause premature death(intestinal enteritis)or some irreversible damages (hokkien pua siew) Express pumping may soon lead to express dumping of your beloved pet ![]() |
