right now i have three neon tetras, a pregnant female assorted guppy, and an algae eater. i currently use just normal freshwater fish food, and betta food. since my guppy is having babies, i need to get some brine shrimp, just wondering if the rest of my fish can eat it as their regular diet?

will a peacock eel eat frozen and freeze dried brine shrimp and left over flakes on the bottom of the tank?

Ok so i have had my betta for about a month and have been feeding him 3-4 freeze dried bloodworms. I was thinking about purchasing some brine shrimp. Would this be a good idea? Also, is it true that it is good to fast them? And if so how often?

my betta does not have fin rot (i made sure of this) but he had been eating his tail!! i heard this is caused by boredom, but he has plenty of live plants, and a dwarf frog frog ( i made sure is was not clawed…) for company. i do weekly water changes of 25%. i treated for tail rot incase i just couldn’t see the tail-rot and incase this was what was bothering him, but its not. he loves to chomp on his tail, blow a couple bubblies for his small bubble nest, swim alittle, them eat his tail again. i feed him freeze dried blood worms and freeze dried brine shrimp, and the occasional pea. what should i do? his beautiful orange tail that was once soo long is only about half an inch long 
just out of curiousity, does any one else have this coloration on their betta? mine has a black body, with a stripe of turquoise on its sides. the black of the body blends into his bright orange fins and tail, and in the creases of his tail and fins are more tortoise stripes.
catxcatx thank you, u have good info. the coloration in the second pic is similar, but the blue is brighter, and the yellow is orange, ant it is a delta tail. but the coloration is very close!!
i have a baby african dwarf frog… (the large old one just passed away, so i got a new one…) this baby is only about a cm long… he wont eat anything i try to feed him… ive tried freeze dried blood worms, freeze dried brine shrimp, and flake food, but he wont eat it. i cant get to the store for a couple of weeks to buy frozen blood worms or brine shrimp, what can i feed him..(will tiny peices of frozen meat work..) any ideas would be great!!! also, should i keep him alone in his one gallon tank all to himself, or put him into a large already slightly overcrowded tank? and one last question… how long does it usually take for them to get fully grown? (my old one was two inches, but i bought him when he was fully grown…) i just want my baby froggie to be happy!! thanx in advance for any help and/or advise!!
