Feeding Adfs

[squiremaster]

i heard that is hard to feed ADFs when there in a tank with bettas so im just wondering how to make sure that ADFs get their fair share

feed the betta pellets that float and while hes busy eating, "spot feed" the frog some bloodworms with a pipette . it helps to have a regular feeding spot in the tank so the frog can easily find the food (they have poor eyesight and use their sense of smell moreso than sight). it also helps to have a hidey hole that the frog can fit under and not the betta. feed him in there and the fish can get to the frog's food.
sometimes i have to keep the betta away from the frog at mealtimes with a chopstick by chasing him away(if the betta is feeling particularly frisky that day...just to make sure the frog gets to eat too.
feeding a "frog pellet" which sinks, after lights out, helps too as the betta will be less active.
the most important thing is to make sure you watch when you feed them so you are certain the frog is getting something to eat!
