Default Feeding dried food to betta

New to betta.
Just bought myself a betta. I tried feeding dried food, it did munch then spit off.
Is it easy to train the betta on dried food.

And what are the recommended ones?

Thanks

Take time for them to eat dried food especially when the betta is new to the environment. Most Local Fish shop feed them either tubiflex worm or frozen blood.
Starve them for 1 week they will eventually start eating, probably start very little such as 2 to 3 pellets and observed

atison pellets may be a good start for dry food.

Will recommend the atison pellets. The one with pink cap is the most recommended. Almost immediate acceptance.

Depends on feeding, if 3 to 4 pellets per fish, maybe can change once a week else every three days. Only 50% of the water change and not more than that. I used a manual suction pump from daiso to clean up the tank or bottle
