Who Gives A Fish Forums

I've been experimenting with a mix of things, so I rotate between live wingless fruit flies that I culture at home and a high-quality color flake. I also give my betta frozen brine shrimp as a treat once a week, I think it's a great way to add some variety to their diet.


Thanks so much for all ...

Bug Bites are always a solid choice, they also come in small pellet form, which is convenient. In my experience, frozen foods are a better option than freeze-dried ones.

I had a similar experience with my betta and a nerite snail. At first, he was quite aggressive towards the nerite, attempting to attack it on multiple occasions. However, after realizing that his usual tactics weren't effective, he eventually lost interest. I recall being amused by his frustration ...

Thanks so much for the advice, boomer and sSjey - I really appreciate it. I think I'm going to take your suggestions and upgrade to a bigger tank soon. Maybe I'll add some shrimp for company, I've heard they can do well in a peaceful environment like the one I'm trying to create for Bleu. I'm glad I ...

I'm looking for some ideas on peaceful tank mates for my betta, Bleu. He's a pretty chill guy, but I know most bettas are aggressive, so I've kept him solo in my 2.5 gallon tank. I'm planning to upgrade to a 5 or 10 gallon tank soon and I'm not sure how he'll do with tank mates. I've had him to ...
