Betta fish are beautiful and easy-to-care-for pets, but what happens if you forget to feed them?
A healthy Betta can survive 10 to 14 days without food, but it's not ideal for their health
Starvation weakens their immune system, leading to stress and illness.
Factors like age, water quality, and previous diet affect how long they can go without food.
Planning a vacation? Betta fish can go 1-3 days without food, but longer gaps are risky.
Use an automatic feeder, slow-release food blocks, or ask a friend to feed your fish while you're away.
Skipping a meal once in a while is okay and helps prevent overfeeding.
Signs of starvation include lethargy, loss of color, and a sunken belly.
Keep your Betta healthy by feeding small portions once or twice a day.
Proper care ensures a happy and long life for your Betta!
