Well, it sounds like it could be carrying eggs or possibly constipated. Try feeding it some frozen peas that have been thawed, blanched (boiled for a minute or two), and cut up. The peas tend to act as a laxative. Watch it for a while and see if it poops. Keep us posted

your defo right, unless is there another angelfish in teh tank with it, because if there is they could have paired and she is carrying eggs. If not i would feed the peas, best solution for constipated fish.
Good luck

OK, so for the past few days my computer wasn't working. sadly the angelfish died yesterday. so, i was interested to know why it was so bloated, so i disected it to see what was in the there. as soon as i cut the belly a lot of blood came out, or some red liquid. inside there wasn't any eggs and the stomach wasn't big. and i have come to a conclusion, i think that one of its organs rotted for no reason and because of that, the whole belly was filled with liquid and other stuff. could this be the reason. also i have attached some photos when it was fat.
