Floating fish food for koi and goldfish

At the Fish Works, we only stock high-quality floating fish pellets made by reputable brands. These fish food brands are formulated to optimise fish health and enhance colouration and do not lead to water quality problems like some cheaper brands.

Only feed your fish what they can consume in 2 minutes. You will find that they eat more in the warmer months when they are growing. During this time, you may even consider mixing in sinking protein pellets to supplement their diet.

Overfeeding is one of the biggest killers of fish! Excess fish food pollutes the water and leads to problems such as high ammonia and nitrates, low oxygen levels and algal blooms.

Only purchase good-quality fish feed! Poor-quality fish pellets will pollute your water and lead to poor fish health. We also recommend mixing in some finely chopped kitchen vegetables weekly as well. Maybe just for 10 – 20% of their diet. They will love you for it 🙂

Koi and goldfish pellets for pond fish are generally interchangeable and the pellet size should be determined by the fish size you have.

Hikari food

Hikari fish pellets are by far the best but are a bit more expensive. They are formulated to enhance colour using all-natural ingredients. These pellets are imported directly from Japan, so you know it’s good! The Japanese are fanatical about their koi and making quality products. This is what we feed our premium koi and is the go-to product for those with show quality fish.

Porpoise fish food

Porpoise fish foods are an excellent quality fish brand at a reasonable price.
