pk333 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Live food if possible. Black worms as a staple, available in a few LFS. Live mosquito larvae and live bloodworms if possible, cultivated at home. Otherwise, frozen bloodworms, frozen mosquito larvae and frozen brine shrimp. Attison's Betta Pro is considered the gold standard of betta dry food. I use Hikari Betta Bio Gold, but only feed it once or twice a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pk333 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 (edited) Well seeing as you're in Sydney, I can only recommend shopping online as I do not know the LFS down there. Age of Aquariums - Atison's Betta Pro 75gm I also recommend getting in touch with Sydney Splendens Society. https://www.facebook.com/SydneySplendensSociety I highly recommend going along to club meetings. You can learn more in two hours of a meeting and talking to people, than you can in 200 hours of asking questions on Facebook or a Forum. Once people get to know you from club meetings, they'll be more likely to invite you around to show you their breeding set ups and share how they do things. There is also a lot of information on the internet, you just need to google and you'll find it. I don't feed dry food very often because I prefer feeding live food. Dry food can't come close to being as good as live food. One thing to remember with Bettas, their stomach is only the size of their eye, so if feeding Betta pellets, you only need to feed them two at the most, unless your Betta is a Giant.
