A Complete Daily Diet for Baby Goldfish & Koi Fry
Hikari Goldfish Staple is a scientifically formulated floating pellet designed specifically for goldfish and koi fry larger than 35mm (1.5 inches). This complete diet provides all essential vitamins and nutrients your fish need to grow healthy and strong without supplemental feeding.
Why Goldfish Prefer Plant-Based Nutrition
In nature, goldfish actively seek out aquatic plants as a primary food source. Hikari Goldfish Staple mimics this natural diet with higher levels of plant matter including alfalfa, kale, and mulukhiya—delivering the flavors and nutrition your fish crave. The natural green color comes directly from these nutrient-dense ingredients, not artificial dyes or flavors.
Key Benefits
- Complete nutrition—no supplemental feeding required
- Laboratory-verified growth characteristics ideal for starter diets
- Floating pellets allow easy monitoring of intake and waste reduction
- No artificial colors or flavors
- Safe for all non-fancy goldfish and koi fry
Feeding Guidelines
Feed 2 to 4 times daily, offering only the amount your fish will consume within a few minutes. Remove any uneaten food immediately to prevent water quality issues. When water temperature drops below 50°F (10°C) or exceeds 86°F (30°C), reduce feeding frequency unless fish are very active and water quality is excellent.
