Question: Leucistic P waltl getting big fast

[Dyelon]

I got a Leucistic SRN which I believe is a female although i'm not sure and after being quarantined I put her with my other 4 SRN, as they are all about the same size. She has been in the tank for around 20 days now and she grew a bit but is also getting pretty fat.

Is this normal? The others even though eating similar amounts don't seem to be getting as fat.

Yep, it's definitely a female. She looks normal, and growth rates are different among individuals. You may also have 4 males, which will most likely never grow as large as a female gearing for eggs.

Thank you Jasper, just wanted to make sure there was nothing to worry about.

Worry: she seems to be levitating.

Yes haha she seems to have developed this habit of walking upside down. The vets are beyond baffled.
