PLEASE HELP
Dead today, I was totally shocked... two days ago i moved him to my growout pond, remarked as he looked kind of fat... he was still fighting and running with the big boys acting normal

is that the stomach? intestines? is it supposed to be full of bubbles like that?
Added metronidazole to the growout pond... how worried should I be of infection? is this a gut parasite thing? an inflamed organ? WHATTTT?!?!?!?

Im really stumped here guys help would be much appreciated
