Flakes
or Pellets,
which
is Better?
If your
fish
will
eat
pellets,
they
will
be better,
because
pellets
have
less
surface
area
and
so slightly
less
of the
nutrients
will
dissolve
into
the
water.
Also
if fed
properly,
more
of the
pellets
are
eaten
and
won't
end
up in
the
filter.
Pellets
are
less
expensive
per
oz.

What
Size
Container
of
Fish
Food?
|
|
|
|
It's
easy
to make
the
mistake
of buying
a single
large
container
of food
that
may
go stale
long
before
the
fish
finish
eating
all
of it.
It's
better
to buy
a smaller
container
and
to immediately
put
the
lid
back
on tightly
after
each
feeding.
Fresh
food
is better
than
saving
a few
dollars
and
feeding
stale
food.

Is
premium
food
good
for
all
types
of
Fish?
|
|
|
Almost
all
types!!
And
that
answer
surprises
us.
For
many
years
we'd
been
told
and
then
repeated
that
different
species
often
required
different
foods.
For
example,
that
Goldfish
and
Koi need
a
more
acidic
food.
That
piscivors
need
more
protein.
That
Mbuna
Cichlids
need
more
plant
matter.
So
we
are
amazed
that
almost
all
fish
do
very
well
on
this
same premium
food
formula.
Exceptions?
Eels
will
not
eat
it
for
us,
so
far.
For
a
while
we
thought
the
Needlenose
Gars
wouldn't
eat
it,
but
now
we've
seen
them
eat
the
flakes!!
We're
surprised.
Almost
all
of
our
fish
eat
premium
food,
and
when
they
eat
it
they get
more
colorful
and more
energetic,
and
they grow
faster
with
less
waste
in
the
aquarium,
so
the
water
stays
cleaner
longer. |
