Northfin Betta Bits, 1 mm, 20 g

Update 10/12/17: I have been feeding this food every other day in combination with another food and my bettas have been very active, colorful, curious, alert, and had no issues of bloat. This food is one of the best, I have done a lot of research trying to find good food for my fishes and here is why this food in my opinion is good. First Omega One Betta Buffet pellets, I read reviews and reviews of others swearing by this food so I took a look at the ingredients the 2 things that were a big red flag is that Omega One food has BHT and BHA preservatives which have been known to promote tumor growth. I have no idea why Omega One is praised so highly I've read so many bad things about these preservatives and rather not risk it. So Omega One was out, then I took a look at New Life Spectrum. Now New Life Spectrum is a good food, one of the best that is until the company decided to change it. The food is no longer the right size for a betta which is the problem, it doesn't matter how good the food is if the fish can't eat it so until this issue is fixed I cannot recommend New Life Spectrum Betta Formula but only the betta formula. Some say to feed live, raw, or frozen but there are several risk that comes with those types of foods like parasites it can also be too rich and unbalanced to use as a daily diet for bettas that are not show or breeders. On top of that it can be more time consuming, expensive, and make a mess causing the tank to become polluted. Remember these are not wild fish these are domesticated so I rather use a pellet type food as a main diet and bloodworms as a once a week treat. Northfin not only has good ingredients compared to others but the size is perfect for any betta even my younger female betta can eat these no problem and she is about a little over an inch long. I've also been feeding this food without soaking and have not had any bloat problems with my fishes. I've had no issues with this food sinking before my bettas can eat it but I feed my bettas with a long stick and gently place the pellets in the water this also train my bettas to follow the stick in case I need to catch them in a cup to remove them from their tanks this way I never need to net them.

Fed this food for first time today. I’ve never seen him eat so enthusiastically. The ingredients are high quality. Have tried other brands but he wouldn’t eat them. So happy I found this. Pellets are perfect size. Pellets float quite well but one did start to sink but didn’t matter he dove after it!

I had one betta with some sort of issue that was making it constantly float to the surface. I tried three different types of food with no important and ofc kept an eye on the water. It was only when I started feeding him this that he stopped floating. He's healthy and extremely happy now that I just feed him this. My only tiny problem with the food is that some of the pieces are stuck together, so you'll have two pellets instead of one. Not a big deal. You also get a LOT of food, so all in all it's worth buying.

I really wanted to give my betta more food options other than bug bites. I liked that it had different ingredients than bug bites. This seems to be a high quality food and many websites recommend it but my fish would spit it out each time. It almost seemed too large for him or he didn’t like the taste, not really sure what the issue is.

I have a Halfmoon King who isn't wild about Aqueon Betta pellets or Fluval Betta Bugbites which was frustrating. My other two Bettas strike hard at that food and are easy to feed with a simple food rotation. This was recommended for pickier or more sensitive fish. These are a little smaller, but have a stronger smell than my other Betta foods, which is what I think did the trick. The second these hit the water he snapped them up like a vicious predator, haha. He also similarly strikes at New Life Spectrum Betta pellets which are a similar size and also smell strongly. His colors are absolutely vivid now that he is eating well and he is much more energetic. Some Bettas are just used to certain foods.

I alternate between this and omega one for variety (my fish refuses to eat worms). He loves these! I love the ingredients and the size: not too large, not too small like new life spectrum betta pellets. I have only two cons: 1) Like everyone else mentioned in the reviews, these sink fast. But I only feed one pellet at a time, so it doesn’t quickly sink. Finally, 2) it’s not easy to get the pellet out of the ziplock-like package. I wish these came in a round container like most betta pellets do. Despite the cons, I will continue getting these. The current small package I have will last a while so it’ll be some time before I need a new one.

When we got our daughter a betta fish for her birthday, he was in pretty bad shape and looked to be on his last leg (daughter wanted to give it a nice home and try to make it better). We tried different foods and brands, but the little guy would barely touch those. After some research and reading recommendations from betta fish sites, this food made it to the top of the list. I ordered it, and the betta fish LOVED the food. He has also made a miraculous comeback. His color came back and it was a bright, vivid blue with red on the tips of his fins, and his fins have now tripled in size from the little stubs they were. This is the only food he will eat. It floats well, doesn't expand much at all when it hits the water, and is a good size pellet. I have recommended this food to a family member who just got two bettas and those bettas love it also. Price may be a little more than other foods, but so far this pack has lasted us quite a few months. It's also good quality so I don't mind the little extra expense. Will continue getting this.

Lovely food betta loves it great ingredients

Ordered this after seeing it recommended in forums because it isn’t mostly made of fish meal and fillers like other betta food brands. I had only had my betta for 4 days before trying this and had already tried 2 other types of food which he would just spit out and ignore. The first time I fed him this he did the same thing but since the second time he is absolutely ravenous for it and can’t get enough. Within 2 days of eating it he learned to swim up to exactly where I feed him as soon as I sit at my desk and he just stares at me until I give him some because he loves it so much. I would be careful to not overfeed them because of this because I’m sure he’d eat more than he actually needs. Size is great too because one of the other brands I tried seemed way too big for his mouth but this one is really small and perfect. There’s also way more in the bag than you’d think and I wouldn’t be surprised if this one bag lasted his whole life.

Betta fish does love the food

Molto appetito dal mio Betta.
