Pond fish feed at the surface whether or not the food is built for it, so a pellet that sinks straight past them either wastes on the pond floor or fouls the water while nothing eats it.

Pets Choice's Wheatgerm Pellets are a floating food, made from cereals, vegetable protein extracts, vegetable-origin derivatives including 10% wheatgerm, meat and animal derivatives, oils and fats and minerals. Protein is 20%, crude fat 5.5%, crude fibre 5.2% and crude ash 3.5%, and it's described as a complete food for all freshwater pond fish.

On feeding amounts. There's no daily quantity or share of fish weight given on this listing — the instruction is simply to give only what's eaten within 10 to 15 minutes, and to watch for overfeeding clouding the water rather than following a fixed measure. That's a judgement made pond by pond, not a number we can hand you.

Who it's for: keepers of a stocked ornamental or koi pond wanting a floating, complete staple feed rather than a treat or supplement food.
