HI everyone.
I recently adopted a new betta fish and I’m having some trouble with feeding and bloating.
I wanted to try feeding healthier with my new betta so I purchased some frozen bloodworms. I’ve been feeding him these frozen bloodworms 1x daily for over a week now. I fasted 1 day last week. If it matters, the place he came from fed him pellets 1x a week if lucky.
I noticed he will bloat up a bit after eating even though I am only giving him 2-4 worms. He is a cellophane so it is clear to see the bloated belly. He still remains active after feeding time.
I searched the internet and now I’m confused. Many people say bloodworms alone are too much protein and fat. But people also say that if you feed bloodworms or bribe shrimp, bettas won’t want to eat pellets. I tried giving mine a single pellet and he spit it up.
Advice? Thank you.
