new betta fish owner and the food says....

[Ozzy Greyman]

I bought a betta fish and aqurium and pellets etc.. and the betta fish pellets say exactly 4 pellets 2 time a day, i follow these instruction right because i have been reading some other forums but i think i should follow them, is that correct????

Thats fine!! Hope you enjoy your new Betta!!!

[Ozzy Greyman]

thanks for the reply and i my new betta fish is awsome

I feed mine 2 pellets twice a day but I think 4 twice a day might be a little much. 2-3 is fine. I'm sure other members will give their imput.

ok i was just wondering because the little bottle thing says 4-5 2 times a day so i was just wondering...

[crowntail lover]

How big is the tank he is in?? This makes a different as well

[dramaqueen]

If its a good sized fish and he's pretty active I think 4 will be ok.

[Ozzy Greyman]

thank you very very much for reassuring me!

It probably depends on the pellet size, really. Some brands are larger than others. The kind someone I knows uses takes about two pellets to equal my one. I use Wardley Essentials brand and I feed 2 pellets twice a day. What brand is yours?

I have the small betta food. I was told by someone that knew someone to feed the fish every other day. What should I do? I've been feeding him every other day. I had a couple before this and feed them every day and I think that was too much.
