About 2 months ago, I got a handsome veiltail betta in my spare 2 gallon tank. I am gonna upgrade it, don't come swarming at me with info... anyways, he wasn't really interested in food for the first week. That was understandable. After a week, he showed a tiny interest, but he spat the food out. They were small and soft flakes, so I assumed he didn't like the flavor. He seldom ate any flakes that I could see. I ordered some floating pellets by TetraBetta. He still spits these out, even though these pellets are extremely soft and small! The coloration and texture of the food isthat of a cooked carrot. He does eat the pellets, but it takes him overnight to eat them all. He doesn't like to eat in front of me. I was wondering, is something about me or the food making him uncomfortable? He is lethargic, but once again I am upgrading to a 5 gallon after the holidays. Any help? Is he sick?
