Key Benefits

• Staple food for larger goldfish: Floating granules sized for bigger goldfish, sensitive fancy varieties (e.g. veiltail species) and other fastidious coldwater fish.
• Promotes growth and immunity: Helps fish grow strongly without fattening and enhances disease resistance.
• Sustainable protein: Contains 4% insect meal (Hermetia illucens) as a sustainable protein source alongside fish meal.
• Excellent digestibility: High-quality ingredients, including insect meal, omega fatty acids and mannan oligosaccharides, make the food easy to digest and give even the most demanding fancy goldfish all the nutrients they need.
• Clear water: The granules keep their shape and do not cloud or pollute the water. This helps keep tanks clear and pond water clean.

• Complete feed: Formulated as a complete feed for all goldfish.

Why Goldfish Need a Diet Close to Nature

Goldfish need a varied diet that matches their natural requirements, and their anatomy is unusual. They have no true stomach, only a stomach-like section of the intestine, so they never feel full. As omnivores, they are always searching for food, which makes overfeeding easy.

The best approach is to offer small portions of easily digestible food several times a day. That food should contain proteins and carbohydrates the fish can use efficiently. Sera's high-quality goldfish foods are designed around these needs, which matters if your fish will happily beg at every opportunity.

The sera Goldfish Food Range

• Goldy Granules and Goldy Flakes: Two high-quality staple foods that provide small or large goldfish, as well as particularly fastidious fancy breeds, with all the important nutrients they need. The granules are the choice for larger fish.
• Goldy Color: Suitable for supporting colour development.
• "Nature" range: All sera goldfish foods belong to the "Nature" range and are made without dyes or preservatives.

How to Use

• Scatter the floating granules on the water surface, where your goldfish can see and take them easily.
• Feed once or twice daily throughout the year.
• Give only as much as the fish eat within a short time.
• Avoid overfeeding. Goldfish do not feel full and will keep looking for food, so small, measured portions are the safest approach.

Dosage

Feed once or twice daily, all year round, offering only as much as the fish consume within a short time.

Suitable For

• Larger goldfish.
• Sensitive fancy goldfish variants, e.g. veiltail species.
