Hello! I just bought some bloodworms for my new betta but it comes in a slab of 2cmx2cm squares. Just wondering how much to give my betta/how big the piece is I must cut off?
The upper fish are going to inhale most if it before it gets down to the bottom, I feed as much as they can massacre in 20-30 seconds, and they do massacre it, the temp in my tank actually has gone up .2 degrees when I feed blood worms!i do not know about goldfish and bw's though..Nice. I'll hijack this thread a little. I have 9 juvenile Neon Tetras, 6 Kuhli loaches, 4 Harlequin Rasboras and a juvenile Bristlenose Pleco. How much should i feed to them? Second question, should i feed some to my comets as a treat? I think i read about someone else that does.
Back when I was setting up it got a bad thermometer and it really screwed a tank up, being that I'm crazy I went out and bought a 22$ digital get up, it's pretty accurate. It doesn't change anymore, I'm guessing it was from my rainbows (rehomed) they were nuts during feeding..You must have an extremely good thermo if it can accurate judge a rise in tank temp based off of feeding actions lol. My temp fluctuates 0.1 - 0.8°c constantly.

At any rate the temp changed in that moment, perhaps the frozen food had something to do with it. I'm currently searching out some type of hydrothermal disturbance that could result in temp fluctuations. I'll let you knowFish are ectothermic. They produce no heat. Eating or not. I assure you your fish were not heating your aquarium.

Coroner ruled... Death by excessive abstract science to the brain.. Still searchingOh my god just kill me now!
They only eat them! Don't go bobbing for fish brains in your tanks .Great I'm dead! Good thing zombies don't need brains... Watch your back!

It usually holds pretty steady at 79-79.2You know those digital thermometers don't just hover at the tank temp. If your tank temp is 80F the thermometer will range from 80-80.9 or so, and will gradually climb .1,.2.,.3 and then cycle all over again.
Still think my fish are hot! In fact they smokin!Well, it's still 1,000,000 times more likely that your thermometer had a glitch than it is that your fish consuming food somehow increased the aquarium termperature.
