Triops are omnivorous and primarily feed on small organisms and detritus in their environment. Betta bites, which are formulated fish pellets, may not be ideal for triops as their dietary needs differ. While triops might nibble on them, it's better to provide them with a varied diet that includes algae, small live foods, and specially formulated foods designed for them. Always ensure that any food offered is appropriate for their size and nutritional needs.

Do triops eat brine shrimp?
In the wild they eat plant material, small bugs and pond creatures, and even each other if food is scarce. If you are raising triops at home you can basically feed them anything organic. Chopped up vegetables and other kitchen scraps are good choices, or you can simply feed them a commercial fish food, like Betta fish food or shrimp pellets. You can also throw in dead bugs, spiders, etc and see if they will eat it. Or as the previous poster mentioned, you can even feed them grass. If you need suggestions or specifics here is a link to a very good triops feeding guide, including how much to feed triops, when to feed triops, etc. http://www.triopsguys.com/triops-feeding-guide-78/
