Standard Deduction Vs. Itemizing. Adjusted gross income has nothing to do with itemizing, which is a common mistake may people make. The section on Form 1040A following Adjusted Gross Income is titled Tax and Credits and includes Line 40 for itemized deductions and Line 42 for exemptions.
Bettas being kept as pets will do well on a standard pellet food designed especially for bettas (I recommend HBH Betta Bites or Tetramin granules) with an occasional treat of frozen/live worms or freeze-dried brine shrimp andbloodworms. Pet bettas should not be overfed; a few pellets per feeding is sufficient.
In the wild Bettas generally grow to 6.0 cm (2.3 in.), however many are now bred up to 8.0 cm (3.5 in.) in length. A Bettas diet in the wild generally consists of insect larvae such as mosquito larvae. It is noteworthy that many of these insect larvae feed themselves on green organic matter, so a proper diet should consist of food that duplicates the digestive contents of these larvae as well. Betta fish can live for up to 8 years in the wild, but this is rare with all the risks they also face in the wild.
