A steady diet of this caused my goldfish to lose color. And I don’t mean a little. I mean she went from being a gorgeous red and orange to shock white. Other goldfish in my tank also started losing colors. After inspecting the ingredients, trying to figure out the problem, I discovered it’s full of fillers, and more importantly lake colors. A lake color will only disperse in oil, sucrose, or alcohol. It’s also the same stuff you find in your makeup. What do you think that does to a poor fish’s digestive system? I will never buy this again. Oh, and that color change issue with my goldfish? 1 year later, on a good frozen pure food diet, the white goldfish is still white, and the ones who lost some of their color, never did regain it.
I figured i would buy this online since it was cheaper than in the stores and my fish had about 4 days left on their food. if i waited my fish would have probably died.lol. i had to go out anyway to buy fish food because the shipping was soo slow.
Hmm, my outdoor pond goldfish like it, as well they should as this comes out to $36/lb, more than lobster.
So, what to do? Buy and grind up fish and wheat germ and whatever else is on the label? Nothing motivates my fish like mosquito larvae, but living amongst those evil bloodsuckers is more than I want to do.
Oh, well, I’ll just get whatever seems to be the best deal at the time and maybe the herons and egrets and racoons will live a better life near the top of the food chain. They seem to like fish that have been fed expensive food.
The fish love it, stay healthy, live long and prosper. We have two ponds with approximately 90 total goldfish, 2″ to 8″ long, some plain, some fancy. We sure haven’t seen any problems with “air bubbles trapped within their bodies.” The fish have been living on it for over five years, so I think it’s pretty good stuff.

My fish eats this stuff up and seems as happy as a fish can be.
