My betta went absolutely insane for this the instant I put a few of these impossibly tiny pellets in his tank. When opened, there is exactly one hole punched out of the sifter when you lift the cap. I was about to knock out the other panels blocking the openings, but then I figured I should first see what size the actual pellets were so I didnt wind up overfeeding. I very carefully shook the container over my hand, and the pellets that fell onto my palm were so tiny that I thought that it was just debris from the canister, lol. I shook out a few more and nope, that's actually the size. Theyre maybe three times the size of the period at the end of this sentence. I've never in my life seen any food so tiny. But when I tell you size doesn't matter, girl, that betta lost every bit of his mind when I put the pellets in his tank and he finally noticed them - theyre so tiny he couldnt even see them at first! He didnt trust the small pile of about five, but he found one that had floated off by itself. He examined it carefully, tasted it, and *immediately* turned to the small pile and devoured them as if I don't already feed him like he's a 12-pound catfish. Between these and the Hikari Vibra Bites, with the occasional treat of some frozen bloodworms and brine shrimp, this fish is living in absolute luxury and he's going to wind up looking like Mr Creosote from "Life of Brian" if I'm not careful. I am really happy I found a couple of good foods that he loves. I had him on Bug Bites flakes before and he was pretty meh about it. Importantly: The flakes left the tank a sludgy mess. These pellets and the Hikari Vibra Bites? No waste *at all*. He gets every single one - be careful because this is one food that you can definitely accidentally overfeed on, even with your pickiest fish - and they are wonderfully slow to sink. He gets his instinct to hunt satisfied with the frozen foods I give him, which I thaw in a bit of tank water and then drop in so they float around and he chases after them and goes into the substrate. But these pellets stay on the surface until the fish can see them and eat them, they are very easily dispensed, and so far I have seen no leftovers so there's no tank waste except when he has what will undoubtedly be massive fish poops because I'm feeding him like he's Moby Dick instead of a betta. Anyway, buy your betta some Shrimp Patties if you love them. They will love you right back for it. And trust me on how tiny they are - dispense by shaking gently over your palm first and then use your other hand to drop them in a couple at a time. Don't shake directly over the tank or you may accidentally wind up with 10,000 tiny pellets in there!

My bettas absolutely love this quality food. I love that it doesn't sink like other food that claims not to sink. I will keep buying this easy to sprinkle food for my fishies.

THe fish seem very happy with this food.

After I replace by this food my betta fish is happier, healthier and having better appetite.
