Pellets soaked with water? That sounds like a lot of food for a bird his size. Is he finishing everything you're giving him? It sounds like the ratios of what you're giving him are right, but it sounds like you're overdoing the portions. You're right that an overweight bird isn't a healthy bird, they're very prone to atherosclerosis and fatty liver, both of which become very serious very quickly.
When you give him fruit on the kabob, is it a whole fruit? Like, a whole strawberry, grape, etc?
If you had to measure it, how much food total would you say you're offering him per day? 1 cup? More? Less? Like I said, it sounds like his diet is great, he may just need less of it
