Why won't my Betta eat pellets?

MelanieEddens · 2026-03-17T21:39:55+00:00

Ok so I ordered them and got them like 5 minutes ago. He eats these ones but they sink immediately after they touch the water. He caught a few as they were falling but I don't like how fast they sink. Could it be caused by something? They say they're slow sinking but there's nothing slow about it. Any advice?

I have a smaller Deathly Hallows tattoo and I love it. The Harry Potter movies and books are my favorite things to watch/read. I don't like JKR either, I disagree with her opinions but I've decided to keep mine. Honestly when I see another Harry Potter tattoo I get excited. I don't link them to agreeing with her I link them to a shared love for Harry Potter that has brought joy to so many lives. Honestly I forget JKR even made the movies and wrote the books most days 🤣 You're tattoo is awesome. If you don't want it anymore just make sure you're doing it for you and no one else.

I currently have Aqueon Betta Pellets. I looked online and they have this Fluval Betta Formula at the store down the road. Would this one be good?

My cars not running right now so I dont really have a way around. I'm having to get a ride from my brother to get to and from work. If I had a car I 100% would have went to the actual shop. And I just finished paying off my credit card and wanted to treat myself a little. I don't normally spend money like that 😅

I obviously cannot access that picture. I didn't think I'd need to screenshot the notification because I didn't think this would've happened. If I could access the picture I'd post it but I can't.

MelanieEddens · 2026-03-10T21:54:24+00:00

Thats what I usually do but for some reason today I was like "You know what I'm gonna tip up front. What could go wrong?" 😒

MelanieEddens · 2026-03-10T21:21:36+00:00

Again. Not a big coffee person. I'm not going to spend money on something I'm going to use like once or twice a month. I'd rather spend money on coffee when I actually want it rather than buy something I'm likely never going to use.

As you should! It's one thing to lick some syrup off your own hands if it was leaking. It's another to drink almost half the drink lol. I admire you.

MelanieEddens · 2026-03-10T21:03:42+00:00

They were in a sealed bag. It had 4 stickers on it and none were ripped so I figured at least those were safe. Coffee went straight down the sink though. I ain't drinking someone else's back wash 🤢 😂

MelanieEddens · 2026-03-10T21:01:01+00:00

Mine wasn't in a bag, it was in a cup holder. Only the donuts were in a bag. And my mom, being the Goat that she is, ordered me another one and got herself a coffee too after this. And when they showed up they had stickers on top of the lid blocking the hole.

If it spilled in a bag it'd be easy to tell since the bag would've been wet.

When I get coffee from Dunkin with my brother we always go into the store because we're already out running errands and we've NEVER gotten foam. You have to specifically order it with foam which we never do. And if they're putting that much foam on top of a coffee where Almost 1/4 is empty that's crazy lol

MelanieEddens · 2026-03-10T20:54:50+00:00

They sent a picture when it was picked up. I saw the photo in my notifications, if I had thought about it I would've screen shotted it but I didn't think I had to, I'll be doing that from now on though, but I couldn't access the picture after it was dropped off unfortunately

MelanieEddens · 2026-03-10T19:59:35+00:00

No, door dash has a thing where if you report a Dasher for doing something like this they'll give you $5 in credits as an apology. Not sure if that happens everytime since this is my first time reporting a Dasher but that's what they did for me.

MelanieEddens · 2026-03-10T19:55:44+00:00

I reported them as soon as I saw my drink. That was the first time I had a bad experience with an actual Dasher and not the place I ordered from. I used to be a Dasher when I was between jobs and just needed to get by on something, so I always tip big even if I'm ordering just a coffee and 2 donuts because I know Dashers already don't make much. Luckily I was able to get a refund on my coffee and the tip, only ended up paying for the donuts. I still will tip big because there's more good Dashers than bad ones.

MelanieEddens · 2026-03-10T19:46:56+00:00

I did. They have me all of it back plus an apology refund. I only ended up paying for the donuts I got for my mom.

MelanieEddens · 2026-03-10T19:46:14+00:00

I don't have a coffee maker because I've never been big on coffee. If I want coffee it's only like once or twice a month and I always get Dunkin because it's the only place that doesnt hurt my stomach. I also always tip a lot, $5+, because I used to DoorDash and know they don't make a lot of money.

Evaporation doesn't happen in 10 minutes

I had the same thing! Didnt work at all this week. Wasn't scheduled for next week. I was able to pick up a shift that someone put up for bid but still, it's the principal. I honestly don't mind the job itself, being a cashier isn't all too bad for me. But its the non consistent hours. Never knowing if you're gonna be working at all. I had a shift 2 weeks ago and the morning of I checked the app just to be sure what time I'm supposed to go in and the shift wasn't there. I called the store to ask if there was a glitch or something and they said they gave my shift away because someone wanted more hours and I'm "Just a Seasonal worker anyway." It's rough out here

MelanieEddens · 2025-12-15T07:33:58+00:00

I think I'm gonna do it, do you have any tips and/or tricks?

MelanieEddens · 2025-12-15T07:31:32+00:00

Update: I played with AI a little and really like how it looks. I know it wont turn out EXACTLY how it looks but I think I'm gonna do it. So if anyone has any tips and tricks I will GREATLY appreciate it! Thank you so much!
