Yesterday before feeding, all the fish were fine. After feeding, one of the neon tetra seemed to just die! On taking it out, I found that its stomach was very full. Is this because it was greedy and ate all the food? Or may be it ate a flake as soon as it hit the water and then swelled up inside him/her. Death by food! Can anyone else confirm that this is something that could possibly happen or should I be worried. Everything else seems fine - as soon as the fish was taken ill, I checked the water and nitrates and ammonia were normal, zero levels.
Should I crumble up the flakes before feeding?
I just want to confirm that this can possibly happen (overeating --> dying)?
