Hi everyone!! So my new betta, Iggy, is a sweetie and we love him so much! Buuuuut he’s started refusing food. Either flaring at it, or just chewing and then spitting it right back out. He ate pellets great when we first got him, for at least a couple weeks! Now, the past few days he’s been...

I know bettas can go awhile without food, but what worries me is my little guy Dawson is not rounded at the tummy at all, and seems quite thin if you look at him from above. He is young though. I brought him home from Walmart, where he's been for a few weeks - (scary). I got him early...

Hello Everybody! So about a week ago I bought a baby betta fish from petsmart. From what I'e read, baby betta fish need to be fed several times a day. My baby keeps spitting out his food. I'm feeding him "baby betta micro pellets" What should I do? Will he be okay? Am I feeding him too...

I just recently purchased my Betta fish named Sushi. I began feeding sushi the pellets, and realized he wasn't eating them, only holding in his mouth, to soon spit out.

So I bought a Betta fish yesterday, he is my second one ever. Overall he seems very happy and very active, only thing is he keeps spitting out his food. He spits it out then re-eats it and does this about 4 times before eating it for good. A few minutes later he will then spit out chewed up food...

I'm a new betta owner, and I have him for about one week so far. I recently received my orders of silk plants and cave from Amazon for him. I put them next to his bowl, so he can see them. I didn't place them in yet because I still need to get gravel. Ever since I put his new accessories near...

I got sprinkles a week ago. His eating habits were good at first, but lately for the past few days I think he's been having trouble with his pellets. I feed him Omega one betta buffet pellets. He goes to them, eats it, then spits it out. Then as it falls he chases it to the bottom but once...

My red betta fishy, Jimmy won't eat. He puts it in his mouth, but then he spits it back out. I got Jimmy from Petco a little less than a week ago. When I got him, he was eating just fine. Then I went out and bought some flake food for Jimmy and fed it to him the next day. A few seconds later, he...

Hi I'm new here :-). And I've read a couple of threads about this topic but I'm still not sure about my Rorschach. I've had him for about a month and he used to eat his pellets instantly without any problems. Sometime last week I had a heater malfunction (walmart bought, go figure) and so...
