	Betta Feeding in a Tetra Tank
judz Enthusiast Posts: 256 Kudos: 160 Votes: 5 Registered: 06-Jun-2005	I have no idea how to feed my Betta, Lucky he eats flake food. But When i feed the betta the tetras get the food far faster then the betta. Then if they dont eat the betta bits they go to the bottom and he wont eat them when they are in the rocks. I dont want to waste any of the food or it decay and fire up my levels. Im hoping the pleco will get any of the betta food on the floor he misses.

You could also try to feed some floating food that the betta may have a chance to get. Feeding rings may also be a viable option.
