really fat betta

[william]

My betta has been getting really fat in my fish tank is that bad?

 

[h2oh]

What do you feed it?

 

[TAL]

He should only be getting 3-5 betta bites at the most twice a day.

My betta will eat much more if i give it to him

and

bloodworms.... I swear he would eat till he explodes on those things.

You might want to tone down the feedings.

Heck even skip a every other day until he works off that gut!

 

[william]

he is in my community tank and i feed my fish bloodworms some times and he just wont stop eating so i will have to take him out of my tank and back in the 1.5 gallon for a little while.

 

[TAL]

Good idea.

Heck my Betta tries to eat the regular fish flakes even after a decent meal has been served to him.

Sounds like your Betta is related to my Betta.

 

[william]

yea he will do the same thing and he just never stops eating

 

[jo3olous]

yea he will do the same thing and he just never stops eating

lol so stop feeding him, what else do you have in the tank btw?

 

[william]

its a commmunity tank that why i have to feed him and the other fish because he always eats the food!

My betta only gets fish flakes..

 

[TAL]

My Betta apparently also likes to eat platy fry.

He is constantly after them - even after being offered some extra meals.

Pig.
