My Betta Fish Has Constipation

After researching a bit i figured it was constipation so i fasted him for around two days and went.

My betta fish has constipation. It stared when i fed him an extra bloodworm at night after his normal meal in the morning. He is bloated but otherwise seems very healthy and happy. But before you learn how to treat it it s also important to know what causes it and how to prevent it.

Certain foods can cause constipation. Pellets should be soaked for about a minute before feeding so they expand before being ingested. Bettas have a very short digestive track that.

I have never seen him poop since i purchased him about 2 weeks ago. Can someone please help me out. And you ve come to the right place to find out everything you need to know about it.

And this can be managed by feeding your betta with a varied diet fasting it once a week and limiting the amount of food you give your betta to 1 2 times a day. But since i noticed his bloating issue i have been doing the pea trick. My male butterfly betta.

Im sorry to hear that kama isnt feeling well dont use the brineshrimp coz they cause swimbladder disorder i dont think its bacterial as 3 weeks of this would have killed him by now what i think happend is that your betta beingba carnivore consumed vegetable matter and his gigestive system doesnt know what to do with it my advice is keep feeding him the pea and try. One of my poor female betta s is constipated i let her fast for a day and tried giving her a pea but she is not eating anything. My betta fish has had a swollen belly for the past month or so.

Constipation in betta fish is a very common ailment. Hi crissy its been a while. I also admit i was over feeding him at first about 6 pellets spread out over 2 3 feedings per day.
