Viper Is A Theif!

[AstonN24vantage]

my male angel, Viper SRT-10 has been stealing the other fishes food and eating more than he should be (probably carrying the gene for united states of america disease) anyway, he has lost all of his excess weight and has stopped pooping things that are the larger than the tank. he is doing fine, but i was wondering if there was anything that i could do to stop him eating too much and stealing food (def not overfeeding).i first noticed it about 2 weeks ago when i left, and i got back to him being pretty big, but not as fat on sunday. in case it helps, he is in a tall 30g


thanks

I had a greedy fat angel, I use to put food in one end of the tank, while he was busy stuffing his face, I put food in the other for the rest of the fish. I would soak a couple of cichlid pellet or sticks far to large for him to eat in one go so he would have to bite at them, thus working harder for his food and taking longer to eat it.

He would if I let him, I have to now open both sides of the tank so everyone gets some, the blessing is chops is such a mucky pup he drops half of it an the others hoover up behind him
