Saki-Hikari Fancy Goldfish Food Balance

Saki-Hikari Fancy Goldfish Food Balance

Saki-Hikari Fancy Goldfish Food Balance is a premium sinking fancy goldfish food, made as a daily staple diet for all types of fancy goldfish, particularly Ranchu. It combines colour enhancement with growth support, and its probiotic formula is designed to help keep your water cleaner and your fish healthier.

Key Benefits

• Colour-enhancing, growth-focused premium daily diet for fancy goldfish.
• Probiotics added. The beneficial living microorganisms are included for more complete assimilation, reduced waste, improved resistance to disease and increased growth rates.
• Hikari-Germ™ reconditions waste into smaller particles that your filter can handle more readily. This can improve overall water quality and filter effectiveness, and helps reduce regularly scheduled maintenance.
• Lab studies by the manufacturer verified improved brightness and depth of the white areas of the body with continued use.
• Higher levels of Vitamin E and stabilised Vitamin C are added to further support immune system health.
• A specialised blend of fine animal and plant proteins naturally provides the carbohydrates, amino acids and fats your goldfish need.
• Easily digestible, sinking basic staple diet.
• A smaller pellet size is readily accepted, even by younger goldfish.

How to Use

• Feed 2 to 4 times daily.
• Offer only the amount your fish will consume within a few minutes, and take care to avoid over-feeding.
• Always remove any uneaten food after the feeding period to avoid water quality issues.
• When the water temperature is consistently below 10°C (50°F) or above 30°C (86°F), reduce the amount of feed based on the activity level of your fish and the condition of your aquarium.

Dosage

Feed 2 to 4 times daily, giving only what your goldfish will eat within a few minutes. In consistently cold or hot water (below 10°C / 50°F or above 30°C / 86°F), reduce the portion according to how active your fish are and the condition of your aquarium.

Suitable For

• All types of premium grade or fancy goldfish, especially Ranchu.
• Younger goldfish, thanks to the smaller pellet size.
• Goldfish keepers who want a daily staple that supports colour, growth and immune health while helping their filter cope with waste.
