KOI feed

We are in the catfish food group. It is now 6 years that they have had
only
catfish food. Koi and goldfish are thriving. Wallet too.
=============================
I see no reason to justify the outrageous rip-off prices charged for koi
feeds. You would think they added gold-dust to the feed. The cheapest
decent quality koi food in my area is $15.00 for a 3 lb. bag of Ichaban.
It's one of the products I used BEFORE I switched to catfish food. With the
number of koi I now have I would have gone broke feeding them food that
expensive as a basic diet. I saw how great other people's koi and goldfish
were doing on it, and switched.

I still do buy the "small" size Ichaban for the small goldfish and koi. One
3 lb. bag lasts 2 years for these little guys.

I have been feeding cat food for years. I grind it in a coffee grinder
for
small fish.
=====================
They really like puppy food too. :-) My koi and some of the older goldfish
gobble up the small "kibbles" without the need to grind them.
