Shop at Petco for the best betta fish food selection this side of the river. Also called Siamese fighting fish, this vibrant and exotic freshwater species is well known to be aggressive with other fish in their tank, attacking and eating anything perceived as a threat. They are carnivorous as well, meaning the best food options for betta fish should include content high in protein, as they cannot survive on plant roots and vegetables alone.

When it comes to their eating habits, bettas have a unique distinction among aquatic pet parents as being extremely picky eaters while also having an appetite for just about anything. As you shop for betta fish food, it's important to note that, just like you, your pet prefers a little variety in their diet. Many aquatic pet parents agree that some of the best betta food diets are made up of a mix of freeze-dried and frozen foods, as well as pellets designed specifically for bettas. Frozen brine shrimp and bloodworms make for especially welcome and tasty betta food treats. You can feed your betta fish live food as well, as a way to stimulate them. You can also feed your betta fish flakes for food. Fish flakes are an inexpensive and easy to store food option. Unlike pellets and frozen foods, flakes float on the water's surface so you won't have to worry about cleaning them out of the substrate.
