Besides brine shrimp and bloodworms, is there any kind of frozen food i can feed my bettas?

I tried daphnia for the guppies but the bettas won't touch it.

I don't want to feed them exclusive;y on bloodworms and BS though....
 
Many people have good luck with frozen mysis shrimp. My bettas hate it, but they like daphnia, so what do they know? :lol:

You might want to consider live food options as well - and by this I mean getting a starter and growing your own. Your bettas will love you for it!
 
Mine will eat daphnia & mysis shrimp, but they will eat the bloodworms first of course. I know they also sell tubifex worms (I only buy Hikari bc it is the only one 100% sterilized), red and white mosquito larvae, and beefheart. I don't buy the beefheart from the petstore because it is way overpriced. I got my bucher at Albertson's to order some for me, and I blended it up in my blender and added some gelatin and fishy vitamins. I feed this through a syringe & needle, like for livestock, and it looks like a little worm. They really love this, almost more than the bloodworms I think. But, it's some work if you really wanted to make some it's worth it, but some people think it's gross. I fed this to juvies and adults. It is high protein, but you can't overfed this bc it will foul the water quickly if left uneaten.
