Can You Overfeed A Betta?

[PeachesNCream]

Well I have 5 males and 2 female betta, but my boy Tiger eats like... well a tiger.
 
Where as my other males eat 2 - 3 pellets and they lose interest, my man Tiger eats an average of 10 pellets a day at least. He is larger than my other betta though. Can I over feed him? He's acting fine, Swimming well. I just didn't know if I need to put him on a diet or not?

Here is a photo of him from a few weeks ago. He is about twice the size now.

You can overfeed any fish, You kneed to know your limits.
 
Fish wont strave, They can go on a week with no food. So take it easy.

Many betta fish are piggies. It seems like one of your fish is a pig. You should give them each only two or three pellets each. If you can, try to feed them individually instead of dropping a lot of pellets at once. You'll find, if you continue to feed your fish like you are, that he'll become constipated and bloated. I prefer to fast my bettas every other day, which may be something you could try. Also, you could give some peas instead of pellets to help your betta's diet.

All of my fish are fed individually, and normally its only 2-3 per betta, except the females only get one every other day because they don't seem to eat as much and Tiger is my only Pig lol I'll watch how much I feed him from now on, what does a bloated or constipated fish act/look like?

A betta's belly is as big as it's eye so you can definately overfeed.  With some bettas it is really easy to overfeed since they are piggies and others can be very picky and be difficult to feed.  I fast every other day as well with all my fish except for fry or pairs I am conditioning for breeding.  You will be able to see when he is bloated/constipated -- he will start to have a very rounded belly and the worse it gets the more he will look like he swallowed a marble.
