Okay, despite the fact that I feed my bettas the proper amount of food, one of them will occasionally get a little constipated. I can tell because his little belly will be swollen. And honestly, I haven't had much luck with the pea. I've even tried moving it around trying to convince them it's live food, but they're just a little too savvy.
However, I also have a goldfish. Therefore, I have goldfish food. And goldfish need a LOT of vegetables in their diet so I started thinking---hmmm, fiber. Well, I have some of these Wardley's Total Goldfish Flakes that are green so I toss a small piece of flake in and (despite bettas being meateaters) all my bettas will eat it and by the next morning---someone has a little morning constitutional at the bottom of the tank.
Am I crazy and is this just pure coincidence, or does this work? Anyone else ever tried this?
