    look at him from the head or tail and see if his stomach is fat or not it takes a little bit of time to decide if they are to skinny or not

    I don't think he looks thin. Does he eat regularly? I love your living room Swiss! Such a cool fireplace and rug.

    He looks fine to me- as long as he is acting normal and you see him eating. what do you feed him?

    He looks good to me. Your other fish look good too. Diet sounds well ballanced. How long have you had the Tang?
