Will a goldfish eat a betta fish?

Answer 1

I believe that most gold fish eat betta pellet food. My two gold fishes at home eat that and they have been alive for quite a while. So you can try with your gold fish and see if they like it. But if you have gold fish food you should just give them that

Answer 2

They can eat it but it will do them no good. Goldfish food is for Goldfish. Betta food is for Bettas. Most pet shops carry both. The reason why manufacturers make and sell the two different foods is a simple one. The fish NEED different foods. Goldfish are omnivorous and Bettas are insectivorous.

Answer 3

Yes, bettas may eat food that is suitable for goldfish. The differences for food that is specific for bettas is that it has more nutrients and will help the betta thrive and maintain a healthier appearance as well.

Answer 4

Yeah, but you shouldn't feed them that. Betta fish have a high protein diet since they are carnivores. And also goldfish are omnivores, they're supposed to have a high veggie diet. Too much protein for fish can cause bloat, swim bladder problems, and inevitably death. You're better off feeding your goldfish chopped up veggies than betta food.

Answer 5

It's the other way around.A betta may not eat the goldfish but it will attack and kill the goldfish.

Answer 6

Goldfish can eat many things. Betta food isn't the best for them, but they will eat it.

Answer 7

Yes, but it prefers betta food.
