Well, try giving it one pellet to see if its hungry and then put in 3-4 pellets for it to eat. Some good treats for your fish are live blood worms, live brine shrimp, freeze dried blood worms and freeze dried shrimp. These can substitute for the normal food you give your fish but DO NOT EXEED THE AMOUNT THAT YOUR FISH CAN EAT IN FIVE MINUTES.
If you allow yourself and the fish 15 minutes morning and evening during which time you add a couple of pellets at a time and keep adding more as the fish eats them. Once the fish stops eating add no more and remove the one or two pellets the fish did not eat. These can sometimes be saved until the next feeding time if they have not been softened too much.
i feed my betta 3-4 pellets a day in the afternoon, around 3 olockish, and let him fast on thursday, so his digestive system can clear up, and he wont get constipated.
It depends on the size of your pellets.
For 1mm pellets, 2~3 a day is enough.
For 0.5mm pellets, 5~8 a day is enough.
Betta fish has the stomach size of their own eye.
about 3 to 5 twice a day
You have to feed a Berta fish 3 pellets in 1 day because I have a betta fish and it eats fine
if you have betta pellets, then you need to feed them 3 pellets once a day
yes, that's okay, but about 3 in the morning and 3 at night would be better. and i assume you are talking about betta pellets :P
specific betta flakes pellets brine shrimp their own eggs== lol if they breed blood worms== what i feed mine. and now it jumps at my finger and bites at it.
Hi, I have studied the effects of feeding a Betta Fish at different types of the day for the last two years. I have learned that to get the best behavior out of your fish that you will want to feed it two times per day. Once in the morning(3 pellets), and once in the evening(3-4 pellets). Or you can substitute your own food that you may feed your Betta into the pellet slots. Hi, I have studied the effects of feeding a Betta Fish at different types of the day for the last two years.

No. Bettas are insectivores and should be fed a proper diet. Special Betta pellets are available at good pet shops but they can get by on Tropical Fish flakes.
You could try feeding them flakes,live food, or frozen foods. Well am only a kid so if they don't work go back to Pellets, or go to website like petsmart.com and see what they to feed your betta (it dosent matter what kind of betta or gender your betta is).
No it is just about all the same stuff.
Well, it depends. If it is a tropical fish it needs tropical flakes. If it is a betta fish it needs betta pellets. If it is a algae eater they need algae chips. If it is a fresh water fish it needs fresh water flakes or pellets or goldfish flakes or pellets. They all like freeze dried blood worms as a special treat! It is good to feed a variety of fish foods! Good luck!
BB pellets are not digestible and will create a blockage in the fish resulting in death. The size and the shape of most BB's closely resemble the prepared betta pellets and so could be consumed by accident.
it is not very good for the fish. ive owned many bettas and i do not advice you to feed it anything but betta food. all the best, fishLover
Betta Fish are carnivores and should not be fed veggies. They should eat pellets made specifically for them. (I use Betta Bites). Also never feed them flakes! Their upturned mouths make it hard to eat them. Also onece in a while you can treed them to freeze-dried blood worms!
