Question
Does betta fish food expire???

Answer
Hi Kevin,
Yes it does.  There should be a date on the package of food you bought.  Frozen food such as bloodworms should last a year, but dry food in their containers will last for about 3 months if left out in the open.  I put mine in the fridge, and take out the amount I need to feed my bettas.  It lasts a little longer, but I always check the date that is written on the container before I buy it.
