Default What Are You Feeding & Where are You Buying Your Koi Food This Season?

KOI-Lo

You may want to look to see if you have a Purina dealer in your area
and if they will special order you some of the Purina AquaMax brand of
fish food for your stock. It is an excellent food, although it is a
little more expensive that regular catfish foods, around here it runs
about $26 dollars for 50 poounds. I have not bought any this year, so
don't know if there is a price increase, but figure there will be an
increase in price. Fuel prices affect everything. If comes in in all
sizes from powder to pellets, with some floating and sinking varieties.
I get the sinking crumbles because I have only Goldfish. The AquaMax
is a high protein food, but with the fish eating plant materials in the
ponds during the summer it is good choice. I still buy Sho-Gold and
feed it off and on through out the summer for variety.
