Feeding a Betta (Siamese Fighting Fish): the honest notes

🐾

Carnivore first: betta pellets or frozen bloodworms 1–2 times daily, only what he finishes in 2–3 minutes.

🐾

His stomach is the size of his eye — 4–6 pellets per meal is plenty. The sad 'begging dance' is not hunger.

🐾

One fasting day per week helps prevent bloating and constipation.

These are breed tendencies, not a prescription. For the actual amount, the calculator uses your pet's real body weight and life stage — the same veterinary formula vets use.
