One thing worth knowing
No full ingredient list has been supplied for this food, only the analytical declaration and the spirulina addition, so we can tell you the nutritional numbers but not exactly what makes up the rest of the pellet.
Why we chose it
A 10kg bag is the practical size for a pond rather than a tank, and a general pellet is the sensible default when a pond holds more than one type of fish. It's a simple, no-frills stock choice for exactly that reason.

Full description
A pond doesn't have the luxury of a single-species tank, so a "general" pond food has to be balanced enough to suit whatever's actually swimming in it — koi, goldfish, orfe — rather than tuned to one species the way a specialist tropical food can be.
Pettex's General Pond Pellet declares protein at 27%, crude fat at 4.5%, crude fibre at 3.4% and ash at 6.5%, with spirulina added at 0.05% for colour. Beyond that declared analysis, no further ingredient breakdown has been supplied to us.

One thing worth knowing. No full ingredient list has been supplied for this food, only the analytical declaration and the spirulina addition, so we can tell you the nutritional numbers but not exactly what makes up the rest of the pellet.
Who it's for: pond keepers wanting a straightforward, general-purpose pellet for a mixed pond of coldwater fish, rather than a food tailored to one species.
