They can survive over 3 weeks without food. How's his poo?

idk?? dont see it haa

[LebronTheBetta]

Lol. Well, check for any white stringy things in his gravel, might have internal parasites.

[jackster911]

if he does?

[LebronTheBetta]

You buy Jungle Anti Parasite Fizz Tabs, do as the directions say and cover a pellet with it and cover it again with garlic juice. Get Epsom Salt as well and do 1-3 teaspoons per gallon, and dissolve it first. The Parasite food is better, though. The only way to cure, check his poo 1st!

then if he has those

[jackster911]

what would another reason be for spitting it out? like ive been trying all. he looks happy

[LebronTheBetta]

Getting it smaller, easier to chew, I suggest to cover his food with garlic juice and give it to him. It'll make the taste and smell better.
