A Note About Our 5 mm Pellet
We recently transitioned to a new fish food manufacturer, and customers familiar with our previous food may notice that the current 5 mm pellet looks slightly smaller and more compact when compared side by side.
Both feeds are designated as 5 mm pellets by their respective manufacturers. Feed formulation and manufacturing processes, including extrusion and how the pellet expands during production, can affect the finished pellet’s dimensions, density, shape and appearance.
Pond Pro® Premium Koi Food is sold and packaged by net weight, not by pellet count or individual pellet size. The package contains the full weight stated on the label.
