How old can the betta fry be fed and reproduced

Betta fry can eat some animal feed such as water fleas, silk earthworms and abundant shrimps about one week after birth. You can feed synthetic feed about one month after birth, but you should not only feed synthetic feed, but also feed it with animal feed, so as to ensure their adequate nutrition. When they are born about 3 months ago, most of the food can be eaten. Breeders only need to ensure their food diversity and adequate nutrition.

1. How old can betta fry be fed with feed

When betta is born about one week ago, it can be fed with some animal feeds such as Daphnia, wiggler, silk earthworm and bumper shrimp. The protein and fat content in these feeds are relatively high, which can meet most of the nutrients needed for their growth and development.

Betta fry born about one month can eat some small synthetic feeds. The nutrition in these feeds is comprehensive, but for Betta fry in the golden stage of growth and development, the nutrition is still insufficient. Therefore, it is best for breeders to feed with some high-nutrition foods to ensure their adequate nutrition.

They are about 3 months old and can be fed most of the feed. As long as they can ensure that their nutrition is comprehensive and balanced.

2. How old can betta breed

Different species of betta have different adult time. Generally speaking, Thai betta develops faster and can mature in about 3 months. The development speed of Chinese betta fish will be slower, which will take about 4-5 months. Although they can mature in 3-5 months, it is not recommended to reproduce immediately. Because they have just matured and their sexual function is not particularly mature, it is best for breeders to wait for one month after they reach adulthood before allowing them to reproduce.

In addition, breeders can judge whether they can reproduce by their size. Under normal circumstances, they can reproduce when they reach 4 cm in length, but the best breeding stage is when they reach 5 cm in length.
