Hi all! I realize this is a fish 911 forum, and it is a bit late to be 911ing, but I want to know if I need to worry about my other fish.
So this guy I noticed was quite "full" looking on Monday, as if he'd eaten a ton of food. He then started to look like he was ballooning. His scales started to look like they were popping off of him. Then I quarantined him within the tank, and he turned upside down and today he died.
The red swelling wasn't there when he was upside down... He almost looks like he imploded.
Should I be worried about the rest of the fish, or did I overfeed this one?
Thanks!

Looks like dropsy.
Uh oh. Doesn't sound good from the short bit of reading I did. Time to buy some new fish food!
