I have been feeding my Midas Blenny and its stomach is bulging but it still wants food! And eats food! Do these fish know when its time to stop eating?

Here is my fat lawnmower. I love him so much. He is the most personable fish. And SO fat he looks like he would burst.

No, actually, they don't! They will eat as much as you can give them. For that reason, you must be prudent to not overfeed. And just to make sure, it doesn't have any issues pooping does it? Because that can also cause the large bellies...

That's a cute Blenny Mercurio. Marshall O : I'll keep my eyes on that because I have yet to see it poop, but its just settling in as I've had it for three days, thank you. Oh, and I am being really frugal, just feeding it small amounts of food each time until its all eaten.
