betta food?

Question
I got my beta (crown tail) fish last Tuesday. I fed it 2 pallets that i got from the store. He ate that. But hasn't eaten since then and its Saturday today and I am worried. What can i do? please help me

Answer
Try coaxing him into eating a few freeze dried bloodworms. If he is swimming abnormally, he may have SBD, in which case he is not digesting properly. This can be solved by fasting and offering a very small amount of crushed, de shelled pea to your fish. Other wise, just crush his food to keep it small and watch him for a few minutes after giving him food to make sure he is eating.
