Regular Member Chaory Posted October 27, 2018 Regular Member Share Posted October 27, 2018 Anyone tried it. I’ve been using it on mines and they seem to love it. Wen growth has been growing good also with this food. Here’s a little article that I found. https://puregoldfish.com/pellets/amp/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member shakaho Posted October 28, 2018 Regular Member Share Posted October 28, 2018 I see a lot of BS and no sign of the ingredients of the food being promoted. I suggest you read this article: http://www.raingarden.us/feeding.pdf Goldfish love anything edible. I feed mine high quality koi pellets in small and medium size. These cost a fraction of what you pay for goldfish pellets 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Chaory Posted October 29, 2018 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 29, 2018 I do believe that it is better to use the smallest size if using dry foods for fancies. As it will be less work for the digestion system. I believe the best foods are the more natural foods. Which means less processed. Second if it is processed, the better option would be better ingredients.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member mjfromga Posted October 29, 2018 Regular Member Share Posted October 29, 2018 (edited) Shakaho doesn't have wen growing or compact bodied fancies. But I do. I believe BIGGER pellets are better. They find them better and they're forced to chew them better, resulting in less pellets swallowed whole and thus better digestion. Here's an ingredient list: Fish meal, krill meal, wheat germ, beer yeast, soybeans oil cake, flour, alfalfa meal, garlic powder, fish collagen, calcium phosphate, seaweed powder, chitin・chitosan, plant polysaccharide, vitamins, minerals, others. Pretty run of the mill ingredients. But the PRICE isnt run of the mill. Over $30 for a 17 ounce bag for a food with no spirulina, multiple fillers early in the list (wheat germ, beer yeast, spy bean oil cake, AND "flour") along with ambiguous ingredients such as "others". I don't think so! I definitely will not be buying this overpriced bag of fillers. Edited October 29, 2018 by mjfromga 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member shakaho Posted October 29, 2018 Regular Member Share Posted October 29, 2018 Actually, almost all of my fancies have wens as do some of my long-bodied fish. All of my current fish are pond mutts and all of the fancies (and many of the others) are descendants of my late crown pearlscale, Pearls, mother of multitudes. Many of them are as round bodied as Pearls was, and have "top hat" wens like Pearls, which fortunately do not grow over the eyes. Sadly, none of them have pearl scales. All the pellets get ground up in the throat so the size of the pieces will be pretty much all the same as they go on through the gut. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
