Betta fish keeps missing food. He seems perfectly fine to look at as in he is happy when he is swimming around but after every meal he keeps throwing up. I had a betta in the past and it was a spoiled little one. Betta fish has trouble finding food.

Keep reading to find out all the different reasons it happens. The pellets are much smaller and the formula is much better and they love it. The pellets spectrum sold at petco are a better type than those.

If you notice your betta fish spitting food out then you may be worrying especially if you re a new betta owner. Try buying different selections of fish betta food flakes pellets whatever. We all know that betta s are finicky eaters but he never gave me a problem before.

My gorgeous betta fish keeps trying to jump up to get the food but then keeps missing. My betta keeps missing his food for the past 5 or 6 days now whenever i drop a pellet usually new life spectrum but sometimes the smaller aqueon pellets because his mouth isn t large my betta fish swims up and tries to strike at the food as usual but misses by a few millimeters to the side every time. And 2nd the main reason i joined here today is that he keeps throwing up his food.

1st he seems to be just getting over his fin rot. All it wanted to eat was blood worms then i slowly fed it regular tropical fish flakes i had a angelfish with it in a 10 gallon tank and it would eat the flakes you can keep feeding it blood worms if it chooses to eat it. He hasnt eaten in 2 days cuz he keeps missing.

Fitz what do you mean by. Oh and my betta fish likes to eat a lot of food why is that so. When i first got him he was fine and i just fed him pellets but slowly over time he has kept missing his food i ve tried flakes as well as pellets but he just isn t getting it.
