Hi Everyone,
Zeebron, my CT, is having some trouble eating and I'm trying to figure out how to help him out. He eats pellets (Hiroki or Aqueon Betta). He doesnt seem to be opening his mouth wide enough to gulp the food in, and he ends up pushing the food around until its up against something. He then proceeds to go after it until he finally eats it or gives up.
He CAN open his mouth, he does it all the time, really wide. I pretty sure he's hungry because he'll go after anything I drop in his tank. So how do I teach this guy that he has to OPEN his mouth in order to eat???
I've had him for about a week. This behavior is new as he had no troubles eatting before. This has been going on for about 2 days
TIA
George
