what kind of vitamin should i buy for my betta fish?plz ansewr fast and tell me why?

Answer 1

None -

Make sure that you feed them a balanced good fish food for tropical fish, not goldfish. Also make sure that you do water changes atleast once a month, but make sure that you don't replace more than 1/4 of the water at a time. If it is a small bowl, you will want to increase the frequency of the water change, but not the amount.
Most tropical fish food include vitamin c which has been proven to assist in better health in fish

Answer 2

You really don't need vitamin suppliments. Bettas should get everything they need from food. There are 2 way people tend to reccomend. Freeze dried brine shrimp, and blood worms*. Or a high quality betta pellet or flake.

High quality betta pellet or flake:
1)Primary componet is worm or shrimp. Fish is less ideal, but okay. (A mix of any 3 is good as well.) Remember betta are carnivore and a food with plant matter at the top of the list isn't heathly. Flakes and pellets often use wheat flour to hold the flake together. (This isn't bad thing if the flake is meaty.)

2)It floats. Betta are surface feeders, and often will lose track of falling food. Then it rots, and fouls it's water.

3)It's small. Flakes should be no more than x2 the size of the writting end of a pen. (If it's larger roll the flakes in your hand to break it up.) Pellets should be no larger than the writting end of the pen. If you see your betta grab one and spit it out, then bite it again. Either the food it too hard, or 2 big. (He's trying to break it up, and as long food disappears in the end he's succeeding.)


*Note that if you are feeding blood worms. You need to be feeding a betta flake/pellet, or brineshrimp. (The reverse is true of brineshrimp) I reccomend freeze dried worm/shrimp as it would carry diease, and it's easier.

PS- Please read up on betta care. It's very very easy to over feed a betta as they will literally eat themselves to death. Generally eating to death requires live food like brine shrimp, but they will over eat without other. This fouls the water, causes bloating.....

Answer 3

when we got our betta fish we bought the stupid little betta starter kit that you can get in pet stores. We feed the fish the food from that. Our fish is very active now though because we bought him one of those bigger tanks that have the window clings of like a pirate ship an all. He is a lot more active than he was in that small tank. The food is definitely good for the fish though. Also getting a water purifying chemical that is specifically for these fish (I can't remember what ours is called) it's a good idea. Good luck!

Answer 4

There are foods fortified for bettas with the vitamins that they need. Any pet store will have them. Is he sick? If it is just for overall healthiness then try Hikari Bio-Betta gold. It reduces sickness and promotes color...good luck.

Answer 5

None, Just feed them a variety of foods and keep their water clean. Since they aren't in the habit of fast food, you don't need to worry.
