Did you cycle the tank? Your water looks cloudy

How long has the tank been set up? What are your water parameters? Do you have a heater?

What does “the water seems to be fine.” Mean?

Couple of things: how long has your tank been set up? The water in the first pic looks cloudy. This could be indicative of a bacteria bloom, meaning your tank may not be fully cycled.
How much have you been feeding him? He does look a little bloated in the second pic.
Do you have a water test kit? You can either get the API Test kit (better quality, more accurate) or strips. If you can get these, check your params and post them.
