[CyberET]

I am also adding Hikari Oranda Gold to my Lionhead Gold but there is a problem, one float the other sink, and certain of my goldfish prefer to feed on the surface and the rest on the bottom so, they are still not getting mix food. Hard to find cheaper sinking pellets.

Wafers are expenisve, so those are snack food.

hmm... my fish tend to finish all the floating food, rarly anything left behind, for sinking food, i get left overs more frequently compared to floating food.. i normally feed them floating ones first, and sinking food an hr or two later when i see no more food floating around

So how many feed a day ? Sometime when I am at home and see them gulping at the surface wheneve I walk pass, always very tempted to feed them alittle.

Honestly I think I am over feeding. Hard habit to kick. Anyone else need to attend "Overfeeders Anonymous" ?

Alage and Spirulina isn't the same thing right?

For colour improvement, I used to feed them the following. I *seem* to find the result noticable but it's expensive and I didn't carry on feeding after that.



"NutraFin Max Cichild Spirulina Sticks by Hagen. $3.40 at LFS near Whampoa Hawker Centre. Not a goldfish food but heck, it's suppose to be loaded with spirulina. Each stick is quite a mouth full in size, and extremely dry. I soak them in a tea cup (with tank's water) for 5 minutes before feeding. Crude Protein 36% min., Crude Fat 4% min.. Crude Fibre 3% max, Ash 9% max."

Have been feeding my goldfish with green peas for past week everyday.

They doesn't poo a lot compared when feeding them with pellets.

Noticed their stomach getting bigger but still swim very active.

Also 2 of my goldfish swimming slant way is improving now. They doesn't swim slant way most of the time.

Is the goldfish suffering from SBP when swimming slant? Will green peas cure that?

i'm not sure, maybe green pea results in lesser poo, thus better water condition/quality, which is y the goldfish "behaves" better

Hi everyone!

Anyway, I wonder how much do the "ang-moh" researchers know about goldfish food...

[CyberET]

why regret? 

too many fish... u want? got another 2 if u don't like one side red, one side white

[The Matrix]

after so many food introduce, what are the benefits you observe from feeding these food ? Improve size, head growth, color ?

[The Matrix]

Did you?

hikari lionhead and jrl. size bulk up quite a bit. but the ranchu head not much improvement. for demekins, hikari lionhead, mimozi marron, size grew a lot but water turn bad fast. anyway, i have been using these food since last year for the fishes. thinking of changing mah.
