He will probably never regrow those fins then. I'm sure he's still gorgeous. Just be sure to keep the water quality in prime conditions to avoid things like this again.

How many times do you feed Spunk? If you feed more than once a day, that's too much. Pooping means his digestive system is working just fine... a good sign. His stomach may just be normal sized, but different from how he was at the pet store. My female betta I had looked so different once she was in my care. She was a healthy girl, but died later of gill disease. Poor thing. Just keep an eye on it, and if it gets bigger you may want to lay off the food - maybe every other day feedings - and see if it gets bigger. Right now, I would say it's nothing to worry about based on your description.
