Re: feeding betta pellets

I came across some info about Cobalt online. Apparently, Cobalt is a key part of Vitamin B12, also called cobalamin.

Re: feeding betta pellets

I went with Northfin betta pellets instead - the ingredient list looked good to me and 45% protein is a great percentage for a betta. I'll still feed my betta bloodworms, freeze dried and frozen brine shrimp, daphnia, and flake from time to time for some variety. Has anyone here had any experience ...

Re: feeding betta pellets

Cutting those tiny pellets in half does seem like a hassle. I was really hoping to find a smaller pellet that floats, so I wouldn't have to go through that extra step. There are just so many pellets out there that sink too quickly, and I know my betta won't bother chasing after them.

feeding betta pellets

Deciding on a pellet for my Betta's daily feed. The Cobalt one I found floats, which is a must. I'd love to hear from you experienced Betta keepers about the ingredients. So far, I've been giving my 12-day-old Betta flakes, freeze-dried bloodworms, and the occasional frozen brine shrimp. I also have ...

Re: Made my decision


I've finally got my chance to set up my 300 litre, 4 foot tank after waiting for the building renovations to finish. No more delays, I'm excited to get going. Initially, I did consider a massive 1000 litre, 8 foot tank but the cost was too high for me to justify, especially with the 12-week build ...

Re: exploring the world of rare freshwater aquarium fish

Re: exploring the world of rare freshwater aquarium fish

@eleNt
What made you pick "elephantnose" for your forum name, seems like more than a coincidence after this conversation.
