what are your favorite pellets?

[Isa17 299]

No wen will grow unless she has the genes for it.

Oranda and Goldfish gold both float, to my knowledge, and therefore are not much good to fancy goldfish. Sinking pellets are the way to go.

Yes they do, I have both and had to change to sinking ones.

[Fish Of Gold 2,299]

Omega One pellets and I'm thinking of trying the Thera A pellets next month. I also feed peas, Frozen Blood worms and occasionally frozen Brine Shrimp. I feed them cucumber or zucchini every weekend right after their weekly water changes as a treat. I just mixed up a little batch of Repashy's Soilent Green today for the 1st time, I'll try it out tomorrow to see how they like it

I agree. No floating food in my tanks. No exception for me.

My fish love it and don't have any buoyancy issues on it

It's dense and slightly larger (2mm), so feed carefully.

Should I wait till my goldfish is a bit bigger before feedinf this? She is about 2.25 inches including the tail, and is a fantail.

[jmetzger72 6,976]

Maybe wait until she is a little bigger. The NLS 1mm would be good.

Okay that's perfect because I have nls 1mm so I will feed her that along with her non pellet things until she is bigger.

I have a question: Is Hikari lionhead only good for fancies or for single tails too?

[Mernany 3,708]

I feed Hikari Lionhead and New Life Spectrum Others+A 1mm size. I want to get the NLS algae max pellets some time just to mix it up and get more algae in their diet.

I do supplement their diet with frozen blood worms, frozen brine shrimp, repashy super green and solient green mixed together, and seaweed/veggies.

[jmetzger72 6,976]

It's good for all types of Goldfish. The pellets are just a little bigger than the 1mm size, so maybe not ideal for babies.
