Hey, I got my first betta yesterday and she looked completely normal to me but today when i got back from school i noticed that she looks a bit swollen. Is she bloated did i overfeed?? My parameters are completely normal and I have no idea if something is wrong

When I got my female betta she was super young I think (based on how big she got) and bloated easily.
People will probably ask what are you feeding, how often are you feeding, how much?
She does look bloated. In my experience they bloat pretty fast after eating too much. What and how much do you feed?
Other than the bloating is she behaving normally?
Female bettas also get gravid, so she could have eggs.
I’d fast her a few days(2-3) and see if it resolves. Fish can go a bit without food, so don’t worry she’ll be fine not eating for a little!
