Floating 6mm Pellets for Koi and Goldfish

The 6mm pellet size is a useful choice for larger goldfish and koi that no longer need fine or small pellets. Choosing a pellet size that your fish can comfortably swallow helps make feeding easier and reduces the amount of broken or uneaten food entering the pond.

Because these pellets float at the surface, you can watch the fish feed and check that different fish are getting access to food. Floating pellets also make it easier to spot excess food and adjust the next feeding accordingly.

How to Feed PondMAX Fish Food Pellets

Offer an amount your fish can consume comfortably without leaving significant uneaten food in the pond. Watch the fish while they feed and adjust the quantity according to the number and size of fish, their activity and pond conditions.

Avoid repeatedly adding extra food simply because koi or goldfish continue to approach the surface. Overfeeding increases waste and places additional load on pond filtration.

If your fish struggle to swallow a 6mm pellet, choose a smaller pellet rather than relying on them to break large pellets apart.

Choosing the Right PondMAX Pellet Size

PondMAX produces this fish food in several pellet sizes. The 6mm large pellet is best suited to fish with mouths large enough to consume it easily, while smaller fish may be better suited to the 2mm or 4mm versions.

Pellet size should be selected for the smallest fish that needs to eat the food, especially when several sizes of koi or goldfish share the same pond.

1kg Value Pack

The 1kg bag is a convenient size for ponds with multiple koi or goldfish and provides better value for regular feeding than repeatedly purchasing small packs.
