    if it is not supposed to have bulging eyes and it does it is highly likely that the fish has a disease called popeye... not good. Very slim chances of survival.

    You would be surprised at all the ignorant people on Youtube.

    Peas are usually used as a laxative to clear a fishes stomach,it is usually used to prevent bloat which is common with fish that are fed allot of proteins.
