Hi all,
I have 2 otos, have had them for about 2.5 years now. One of them started getting a big (and I mean BIG) belly a few weeks ago and I didn't think she'd make it long. We'll, she's still around, but she is SO fat I'm afraid she's going to burst! She can barely hang on with her mouth, her belly is so big. She looks like a tadpole from the top. She honestly looks like she's swallowed a ping pong ball.
I thought at first maybe she was going to lay eggs, but all she's done is GROW, and her skin is so stretched and thin, I think she's going to burst!
Anyone else out there ever have this happen?
Sorry I don't currently have a camera that I can upload a picture. Just picture an oto with a ping pong ball inside.
