Cool, just wanted to check.

Chicken, would never of thought of that!!!

Lol they love it, my male Nero, he goes mad for it, hes like a shark in the tank when theres chicken about lolol

6-8 pellets a day is perfect and Hikari pellets are a good choice.

Caution on the chicken though.... this is not a natural food for fish and should be fed very very sparingly. Also, it must be very lean meat with no fat, as fish cannot process animal fats very well.

Frozen bloodworms make an excellent, easy treat once a week. just thaw out part of a cube and feed 5-6 of em. All my fish go nuts when the bloodworms come out

 

[Nyx]

Thanks for that.

Mine are all mad on bloodworm to, they way they eat it you`d think they`d never been feed.

They also love live brineshrimp to snack on.

Havent found anywhere that does live bloodwrom yet tho

If you were to feed 6-8 pellets in one day. Can you feed it all at once?

I've always fed my bettas Top Fin Betta Bits. But that's because it was the first food I've ever bought and it was a huge container, so I don't think I'll run out any time soon. I feed them 2-3 pellets at a time 3 times daily. My bettas love it. They also love their brine shrimp.
