What pellet sizes can i feed my goldfish according to their size/length? Is there a particular size i should feed goldfish of a certain length? Will the goldfish take time to get used to a bigger size pellet?

I'd recommend a sinking pellet for "fat bellied" varieties of goldfish such as ranchu, ryukin etc.

Simply because it reduces the occurence of air filled bellies that result in the fish flipping upside down and floating on top of the water.
