Betta Fish Food

Bettas have upturned mouths and are primarily carnivorous surface feeders. In the wild, bettas feed on zooplankton and the larvae of mosquitoes and other insects.

Betta fish will eat:

• Bloodworms - Live , Frozen or Freeze-Dried
• Brineshrimp - Live , Frozen or Freeze-Dried
• Blackworms
• Daphnia
• Betta Flakes / Pellets

Bettas which feed on wide range of foods live longer, have richer colors, and heal fin damage more quickly.

Typically, Betta pellets are a combination of mashed shrimp meal, fish meal, brine shrimp, bloodworms, and vitamins.

For variety and fiber, bettas are fed finely-chopped, high-protein vegetables, such as soybeans, green beans, broccoli, corn, and carrots.

Some bettas can live on dried flaked food suitable for tropical fish, because although this feed reduces their coloring, the bettas are able to digest this better than pellets.
