I couldn't believe it either, I had been feeding him 1" feeders, but I wanted him to eat some dead fish strips or pellets and he wouldn't touch them, all the while my 6" bala was in with him cleaning up all the food he refused to eat. So I was starving him for about 4 days when I came home from work and he had the bala almost completely swollowed, his stomach was was sooo out of shape and was like he had swallowed a deformed pin-pong ball. I swear his stomach was going to bust a seem , but it didn't.

those are some impressive pics. Like kutty said, if the weights hadn't been listed I would've thought the first 4 were all the same size.
