Description: Kartoffel is a wild betta species called Mahachai betta. Growing cat grass was super easy. It was probably the easiest thing to grow. The spinach flowering was a surprise. I suppose the plant was on its last leg, so it decided to flower before it withered away. Our cat didn’t eat the cat grass. I tried multiple times and she wasn’t interested in it at all.

The light is on 13 hours a day to promote fast growth.

Something like aquarium salt.) Brine shrimp net: amzn.to/30Gkrqg 60ml syringe: amzn.to/2W9iWm5 Neodymium Magnet: amzn.to/2QkFABu (*The most important part is the salinity and temperature. At room temperature and above, it’ll work fine. Higher the temps, the faster they’ll hatch. They’ll continue to hatch upto 48 hours. If it’s winter, try this method: youtu.be/dU5izzyxqeA?t=168 ) (*For salinity, I’m going by the 1 table spoon per liter rule. However, depending on the size of the table spoon, you might want to try 1 table spoon, or 1 1/4 table spoon…and so on. You might want to experiment and see how much salt yields the best result. The brine shrimp will live for 3~4 days max. You can just siphon out only the amount you want during each feeding.) Favorite Kartoffel food: Freeze dried blood worms amzn.to/2ISrbek Frozen blood worms Frozen brine shrimp Frozen mysis shrimp Live brine shrimp (eggs) amzn.to/2L0Y4rG INDOBETTA Pellet Monster #2 – This might be difficult to find. Very few stores import this I think. I bought this at a LFS. Every betta is a little different with different pellets. I feed Kartoffel with several different kinds of pellets and this is his favorite.
