Blenny stomach bulging!
I have a lawn mower blenny and his stomach is huge. Is this because he is eating too much or is it some kind of disease he might have?.. he's about 2 1/2 inches long. If anyone has any guesses, that will help. Thanks

I had a 2 1/2 in LM blenny about 5 months ago,
he is now about 5 inches and his belly is normally looking like it has a golf ball in there. sometimes I wonder how he can even swim!

Beer belly? Those blennies need to start wearing white tank top t-shirts with grease stains... and maybe a cigar.

Blenny stomach bulging!
Mine does this every once in a while. He farts really bad and the bubble goes away
 ok I was kidding about the gas but the bloating does disappear. He may be picking at algae at the surface and swallowing a little air.
