A varied diet regimen can keep your Siamese Fighting Fish healthy and energetic. Feeding Bloodworm for Betta by Jor is a good way to offer a diverse yet energy-rich diet to your pets.
This pack has the essential requirement as listed below:
Vitamins – helps keep bettas resilient to illnesses
Trace Elements – assists in fluid regulation
Essential Elements – energy-provider and aids in building bones and tissues
The process of freeze-drying also keeps the trace elements intact and, at the same time, takes away adverse elements present in live bloodworms. Since they are lightweight, they float, so it is advisable to soak them in a little water before adding to your tank. Your fish will enjoy surface feeding before they finally settle in.
Too Much of Anything is Not Good
Just like any food, anything more than necessary is not good for their health. Control their food intake and do not overfeed them. You have the freedom to limit your serving as this pack of healthy treats is in a convenient Ziplock bag. You take a piece or two during every mealtime then re-seal. The freshness and quality will stay intact for the next meal serving. Your bettas will keep on eating if there's a chance to do so. Feed your bettas in the morning and at night, or at least have 12 hours in between, to allow your fish to digest the food they consumed before the next meal. Remember to use these bloodworms as treats to offer variety in their diet but never as a staple food for your fish. You can use them to replace one or two meals a week and serve one or two pieces per meal.
