I know many people feed Hikari Betta BioGold as a staple diet.

I was feeding 3 pellets in the AM and 3 in the PM. I reduced that to 2 and 2.

It just had me wondering, how many do you feed your betta(s) and do you split it up or do it once daily?

i use that kind of food. usually 2 pellets in the a.m and 2 in the pm is good. they will eat it whole, but for smaller bettas than u might need to break it up.

I use them when i'm getting other pople to feed, or if i'm out of blackworms.

I'll usually feed about 4-6 pellets in one go, but splitting it over 2 feedings would be more effective

I usually do 2-3 2x a day. I had one you could hear chewing...it was weird.

- It is weird when they chew and the whole head goes up and down I was spooked the very first time I saw that thinking something was wrong.

Then it sounds like my 2-3 at 2x daily isn't out of line. I feed bloodworms and bs now and then, but at least my boys stay regular on the bio-gold. It has magnesium sulfate in it. That is, except for the one upstairs who still requires a mirror now and then to "express" himself

I feed 3 twice a day or if it is one of my HUGE guys..4 twice a day. But I also do one fasting day a week, usually Sundays.
