So, I was apparently giving one of my girls a little too much to eat and she chunked out pretty well. Her tail is pretty big (1" at it's fattest point) and she's 82g. I know that Leo's will sometimes store fat behind their front legs, but only under one? I want to make sure it's not something I should be concerned with. You can see the one bump in this photo:
I do plan on feeding her less. So, just wait to see if it goes away? She wasn't feed on a daily basis, but sometimes she'd not eat them all at once and I left them in there for her to eat at will. Which, I am going to feed less now (I throw carrots into extra bugs so they can gut load right in the tank and in theory be better loaded.. she never eats right away, only when I'm not there).
