Betta versus Oscar - Size Matters

Don't Do This - Size matters and the Oscar is a well-designed predator who
will quickly devour the smaller Betta Fish if you should tempt Fate 
by placing them together in your tank.


This Betta stood no chance against the larger, carnivorous Oscar with its sleek form, lightning, strike-speed and huge, powerful jaws.

Even smaller Oscars won't hesitate to strike if you place them together with Betta or other smaller fish.

They seem to be constantly ravenous and will prey on smaller fish in the vicinity with no hesitation at all.

When you see them in action you will realise just how well Nature designed Oscars as feeding-machines.

If you are seeking a buddy for your Betta fish try a small turtle as these two will cohabit peacefully and are fun to watch together.

1-Week Old Betta Fry Feeding on Baby Shrimp






Introducing Variety to the Diet of Betta Fry:

The fry are 1 week old and have been feeding on microworms. 

Today they are given a treat and are fed with newly hatched baby brine shrimp for the first time.

They quickly gobbled them all up and soon all their stomachs turned peach/orange, they loved it. 

The downside is baby brine shrimp are much higher maintenance than microworms. If you can't get all the unhatched eggs and hatched egg shells seperated from the BBS, then you will have a massive cleaning job to get all the shells and unhatched eggs out of your fry tank. You need to do this or to prevent water pollution which of course can affect your fry's health seriously.

Also you need to feed BBS within 8 - 10 hours of hatching otherwise they lose their nutritional value because BBS develops very fast and use up all their nutrition in the process.  This makes them nutritionally less valuable to feed to your fry the longer you wait after they've hatched.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS:


I'm new to the betta experience but did heavy research before I bought one..I wanted to give my fish a variety of food..So I bought these blood worms as a snack a couple of times of week.. So I put them in 1 by 1(only 2) and he gobbles them up with no problems. I also want to mention that this has a heavy allergy alert,so be advised..I use tweezers to put them in so I don't use my hands.. My betta goes crazy for these,it's like chocolate for women :) Just remember ... READ MORE REVIEWS
