this is a great forum but i must disagree i feed my bettas live food ,yes they eat ,but when full they let fy alone till there hungry again,some times they last three days and never had one explode,now if your feeding frozen food ,never feed more than they can eat in 3 or 4 minutes not to cloud water, and have clean container after 4 min sipon out excess dead food.about 20 percent of water and waste products. keep them happy.
