Sera Betta Granules

A natural, color-boosting staple food for bettas. Sera Betta Granules are slow-sinking soft granules made in Germany for the betta (Betta splendens) and other labyrinth fish. They are free of dyes and preservatives, hold their shape without clouding the water, and use natural astaxanthin plus insect-meal protein to bring out your betta's best color and condition.

Why Betta Granules

• Slow-sinking soft granules that stay whole, so your betta can pick them off the surface or midwater without fouling the tank.
• Natural astaxanthin, 50 mg/kg from Haematococcus algae, to deepen reds and enrich every color.
• 6% insect meal as a natural, sustainable protein source that suits a betta's insect-eating diet.
• Prebiotic ingredients that support gut health and disease resistance.
• No dyes or preservatives, part of sera's Nature range.

How to Feed

Feed small amounts once or twice a day, offering only what your betta finishes in a couple of minutes. Bettas are omnivores that do best on a varied diet, so alternate these granules with frozen or live foods for the healthiest fish. The granules stay firm in the water, so scoop out anything uneaten to keep conditions clean.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this be my betta's only food?
Yes, it is a complete daily staple. For the healthiest betta, alternate it with frozen or live treats for variety.

Will the granules cloud my water?
No. They stay shape-stable and do not dissolve quickly, so they will not cloud the tank when fed in small amounts. Remove any uneaten granules.

Do the granules float or sink?
They are slow-sinking. They soften near the surface and drift down slowly, so your betta can catch them at the top or in midwater.

What makes them good for color?
Natural astaxanthin from Haematococcus algae, at 50 mg/kg, deepens reds and overall coloration the natural way, with no artificial dyes.
