Hey everyone, I posted over in Health/Emergencies about my fish not eating. Well now that I know that's OK, I'd like to make sure I'm feeding the correct amount.

My fish where on API Betta food. I bought them Omega One Betta Buffet today.
I fed them 3 pellets(Omega One) each around 4pm? and then another 2 pellets just a few minutes ago. They where being offered 6+ pellets 2-3x daily of the API.

I have a female VT, I've had for over a year, pushing a year and a half now.
And Horton is the new guy, so 6-9 months old? He is presumably a double tail.

I'm just not sure how much I should be feeding them of the new food? Any suggestions?

Here is the size difference between the 2...

I feed my male VT 3 Omega ones in the morning and 3 in the evening.
These amounts have been recommended to me.
My betta wont even touch the API betta food.

Mine love the Omega One so much.
My female is a pig, she eats and it doesn't matter what it is.
My male is finicky, but he loves them too. I have to drop his in one at a time though.

OK, so 3 pellets twice a day should be fine.
Should I fast them once a week?

I believe so, I will be doing this on return from holiday.
