Mosquito Larvae

[community begginer]

g'day everyone.
wondering if it is ok to have mosquito larvae as a food source for my betta?
they come from a pond so obviously there will be a bit of pond water in my 3 gallon tank.
is that ok?
please feel free to share your thoughts.
cheers

Just 1 suggestion...you may want to rinse them off....and only feed them like 1-2 of the larvae to make sure that there aren't any nasties in the water from the pond...

You could also get a test kit for the water to see if the pond water isn't suited for bettas (before you feed them the larve)

Hope this helps
