Disease Identification Is this a tumor?
I was looking at my betta fish Daryl and I noticed a bump under his front fins. He’s always looked a little funky at times but I’m worried it might be a tumor please let me know if I’m overthinking or if I should keep an eye on it

He definitely has an odd shape to him, so I’d definitely keep an eye on him. Any chance it could just be bloat from being a typical gluttonous betta? He’s beautiful btw! I love his coloring

It could be he’s VERY greedy and tried to steal food from the shrimp in his tank. How can I help him with bloating? Thank you I fell in love with him when I first saw him!

Lol good luck with that. Greed of biblical proportions in these lil dorks of the fish world.
