The color of a betta can be enhanced by feeding it with foods of high carotene contents. Such foods are: shrimps, spinach, and carrots. Alternatively, add a very small amount of carotene powder (try to get at nearest pharmacy) into the water.
Betta Fish needs vitamins of small amount. Multi-vitamin syrup or powder will do!
Do not:
- Feed your betta fish with same kind of food over time.
- Over feed your betta with processed food or the left-over will pollute the water. Clean the water if you did.
- Feed your betta with un-cleaned natural foods
