Feeding My Girl

[Sadie555]

I'm feeding my small female 3 Aqueon Betta Pellets two times a day (when I wake up and an hour or so before I go to bed). She seems to be getting SLIGHTLY big, though, which concerns me. She also acts like I don't feed her enough, but I feel like she would keep eating until she burst, so I'm trying to be careful.

Do you guys think I should cut back on the feeding? Maybe 2 pellets two times a day? (I don't think I would remember to fast her once a week.)

I feed my betta's 5 pellets a day. 3 in the morning before I leave for work and 2 in the evenings when I get home. You are correct your girl would eat all day if you keep feeding her. If the pellets are small feeding her 3 pellets twice a day is fine. If they are large then I would suggest 3 in the morning and 2 in the evening.
