Using green Pea pieces on occasion for constipation is not harmful to a Betta IMO/E.......However, you don't want to feed Pea as part of the staple diet due to poor nutrition.

Also, you don't want to confuse normal full tummy with bloat, constipation...etc...and treat needlessly......That is with any type/method of treatment for any condition......

Totally off topic but OFL could I have a copy of your profile pic? It's such a beautiful betta and I love to collect betta photos.

I don't mind...this is one of my offspring from last summer outside spawns and the happy father of 8 different spawns this year...

By soaking food it can leach some of the nutrients and water soluble vitamin....

Pellets will swell up in water, however, they do NOT swell up like that in the gastric acid and enzymes in the gut/GI tract....

Soaking is not needed....
