Question
Well, long time no talk!!
:) The baby bettas are doing great and growing fast, its been 11 days now and there normal size for this age. Anywho, ive been feeding them the crushed egg yolk with an eye dropper, im am wondering when the time would be when i can start feeding them very fienly crushed betta flake food, like crushed into a powder? Should i start now or will that be too soon?
Thanks In Advance  

Answer
Hi Kyle,

Yay! I am happy to hear!!

Now should be a good time to start feeding them crushed betta flake food. You should feed them newly hatched brine shrimp, if possible. You can buy the shrimp hatcher and eggs in local fish/pet shop. It will be good for completion of the nutrience.

When you buy freeze-dried blood worms, on the bottom, there is lots of powder. You should feed them that too, if possible. You can collect the powder by using some kind of net or so, and shake it vigorously for more. It will be very good for the nutrience.

Keep that up for another a week or so. If you want to know a good diet then, ask me. :]]]]]

Good job so far! Keep it up!!!
