I'm a raw and living foodest. For those of you who are unfamiliar with what that is I only eat foods that have not been cooked. I do this because it maintains all of the nutrients and enzymes intact and is much healthier. I'm not here to try to convert anyone. I think you can reach maximum health by eating all kinds of foods fixed all kinds of ways. This is simply my life choice. What I'm here to do is help educate people as to what is happening to thier food. Did you know that the pharmaceutical companies have lobbied to have a law voted on called "Codex Aimentarius" that will take away our freedom to take suppliments? It has already been implemented in Europe. Of course it is still ok for them to put steroids, antiboitics and harmones in our foods. Have you wondered why there is a great influx of people acting aggressively and out of character? I'm here to help guide you through this mess. If you want to eat meat...eat meat...just get chemically free meat. I'm here to help you understand what is happening to you.

He may be having trouble digesting his food if the room is cooler than 76 degrees Fahrenheit. Bettas are tropical, so they need 76 to 85 all the time in order for their bodies to function properly. Don't allow temperatures to quickly fluctuate more than a degree or two, as this will cause undue stress to the betta. If you put a light on him it will warm his water and help quite a bit. Keep it on 24 hours a day so it stays warm all the time. Change his water at least once a week. Be sure the new water is the same temperature as the old water and use a water conditioner. When feeding your betta it is wise to give them a variety of different foods. A staple food such as betta bites, betta bio-gold, or betta min should be fed on a daily basis once or twice day and only 5 or 6 pellets at a time. However, some bettas love variety, and can be fed freeze dried or frozen bloodworms, baby brine shrimp, or live foods such as mosquito larvae 2 or 3 times a week. Some often refuse to eat anything but live food. They are best feed live fish or live black worms. Black worms are often an appreciated food and can be a good choice to use when trying to teach these fish to learn to eat frozen food. It is important to give them a varied diet and they can be very slow eaters. Bettas are also nocturnal, so he may be eating at night and you don't see it. They love darkness and places to hide because in their natural habitat they live in caves. I wish you luck with your betta.
Namaste!
