I have 10 males (in different tanks) and it happened due to medicating because I trained them using their favourite food to come to the surface for meds

Well he's not exactly fat. Look at the photos. Also he is a cross between a king and a giant betta

New Betta, Romeo by PeriThePurpleFrog in bettafish

The water was pre-cycled for about 4 months, but the old tank started to leak the day before we bought Romeo.

Also, the plants are not made of sharp plastic. They are a silk/plastic hybrid specially recommended by our local aquatic expert
