Aqua Source Colour Boost Koi Food

Aqua Source Colour Boost Koi Food

A colour-feeding recipe with a defined feeding cycle

Colour Boost lists carotene, astaxanthin, spirulina and paprika as colour-related ingredients. Its declared protein is 38% and fat 7%. Aqua Source gives a specific feeding cycle for this product, making it useful to plan the rest of the diet before starting rather than simply adding it to an unchanged ration.

Pellet format and pack choice

Bag Size: 3KG, 10kg; Pellet Size: Medium 4-5mm; Pellet Behaviour: Floating. Select the required option for current price and availability. Choose a pack you can use while fresh and a pellet size the intended fish can comfortably take.

Floating pellets make appetite easier to observe. Spread modest portions across the feeding area if dominant fish take most of the food, and check that smaller or quieter fish receive a share.

Ingredients and nutritional information

Ingredients: White fish meal, fish oil, carotene, astaxanthin, spirulina, paprika, clay, minerals, prebiotics and vitamin A.

• Protein: 38%

These figures follow the declaration for this formula. Check the current supplied pack when comparing recipes, particularly when switching between floating and sinking foods or different pack ranges.

Feeding guidance

Aqua Source recommends use mainly in summer and above 8°C. Its suggested programme is two weeks of Colour Boost exclusively, followed by four weeks on another food from its range. Match quantities to appetite and water quality throughout.

Remove uneaten food and reduce feeding if water quality deteriorates. Increase the ration gradually as conditions improve, checking fish behaviour and filtration rather than relying on the calendar or a fixed scoop count.

Storage

Keep food sealed, cool and dry, away from direct sunlight. Use a clean, dry scoop and keep pond water out of the pack. Follow the best-before date and label directions, and avoid buying more than can be used while fresh.
