Help! Ran Out Of Food!

[Dante_the_betta]

The day befor yeasterday I used up the last of my Betta's food. I had been meaning to get food before hand but we don't have a pet store in the closest town, and I haven't had the town. I was planning to get some today...but couldn't. Now if tomorrow goes as planned I should get some tomorrow.

But untill then I was woundering if there was anything I could TEMERARLY feed him untill I can bloodworms, I was also woundering how long a betta can live without food. Just so I can have a heads if he'll die tomorrow and I have to leave in the early morning.

Please help, I really love this fish...

Dont worry, my bettas have gone 4 days without food, and I'm sure they could've lasted much longer....
Dont worry about it....
Your bettas are not going to starve.
The only thing I recomend feeding fish, is foor designated to fish food...

You could try feeding him a shelled frozen pea (well, any pea that doesn't have any sort of preservatives/salt in it). If you are really worried, you can also try catching him a bug. He should be fine if you can't feed him for a few days. A lot of people fast their fish for a day or 2 occasionally. It's not bad.

Right peas,cucumba and thing green, brown bread but has to be soaked before you give it to the fish in tank water, prawns.
