Pond Fish Food explained
We get lots of requests to recommend a good Pond Fish Food. There are several points to consider when choosing a food:
1) What type of Pond Fish are in the Pond? Goldfish? Koi? Orfe? A mixture of all of these?
2) What is important to you? Fast growth? Spectacular color?
3) The Health of the Pond Fish should always be a top concern
4) The impact of the food (and of the fish waste it produces) on the pond
There are many good Pond Fish Foods on the market, but care should be taken to feed a quality food without too many fillers.
Fillers produce a larger amount of fish waste (because they cannot be digested) which in turn makes compost in the pond and feeds algae growth.
The money saved by choosing cheaper fish food is then just as easily spent by having to buy more algae control products.
Digestability is a very important factor. All the larger, brand name Pond Fish Food manufacturers spend large sums on money to make sure their food contains a balanced nutrition for the pets while taking the health of the pond into consideration.
Foods are available to enhance growth, color as well as the immune system of the fish, and The PondMarket carries a large selection to make sure all Pond Pets can be fed a healthy diet at reasonable prices: Pond Fish Food
>>> Fun (Pond) Fact
Fish spawning are quite violent with the males pushing the females against rocks and other objects to release the eggs. Injuries to the females are quite common. Koi spawning in particular can make the Pond look like a Vulcano has been unleashed in it.But never fear, as soon as spawning is over the fish get along again with each other just fine!
