2. Seasonal Feeding:** This food is optimized for use in the Spring and Summer months when fish are most active and require higher nutritional intake.
3. Water Quality Maintenance:** Hikari fish food contains extremely refined ingredients without fillers, minimizing waste that can pollute pond water and help maintain a healthy aquatic environment.
**Pellet Sizes:
Hikari Gold pellets are available in two sizes:
- Small: 3.5-4mm
- Medium: 5-5.5mm
**Why Choose Floating Pellets?**
Floating fish food has several advantages:
- **Easy Monitoring:** It encourages fish to surface, allowing for easy observation of their health and behavior. You can quickly identify any signs of stress or injury.
- **Prevention of Over-Feeding:** Any uneaten pellets that remain on the surface can be easily scooped off with a net, preventing them from sinking and decaying, which could adversely affect water quality.
Feeding Guidelines:
There is no fixed quantity for feeding; however, a general guideline is to offer a handful of pellets up to three times daily during the summer months. Monitor your fish to adjust feeding based on their activity and appetite.
Cost-Effectiveness:
Feeding is one of the largest expenses at our hatchery, and we have found that Hikari fish foods offer exceptional value in maintaining the health and vitality of our koi. Based on performance and results, Hikari stands out as the best brand compared to others on the market.
