Aqua Source Silkworm Pupae 800g

High-Protein Natural Koi Treat for Growth, Condition & Vibrant Colour

Aqua Source Silkworm Pupae 800g is a high-quality natural koi treat rich in protein and carotenoids, making it an excellent supplementary food for koi during warmer periods of the year. Designed to complement a balanced everyday koi diet, silkworm pupae provide an appetising treat that can help support good growth, body condition and vibrant natural colour.

Silkworm pupae have long been popular among koi keepers as a rich supplementary food, particularly during periods when fish are actively feeding and growing. Their naturally high protein content makes them especially suitable as an occasional addition to a growth-focused feeding programme.

Aqua Source specifically highlights the combination of protein and carotenoids within its Silkworm Pupae. Protein contributes to the nutritional requirements associated with normal growth and development, while carotenoids are valued in ornamental fish feeding for supporting attractive colour and overall appearance.

Because silkworm pupae are a rich treat rather than an everyday staple food, they are best incorporated alongside a quality balanced koi diet. This allows pond keepers to provide additional variety without replacing the main food that supplies the complete everyday nutritional requirements of the fish.

For improved digestion, Aqua Source recommends soaking the pupae in warm water before feeding. Soaking softens the food before it is offered to the koi, making it easier for the fish to consume and helping support digestion.

The product is best fed when pond water temperatures are above 14°C. At these warmer temperatures, koi are generally more active and feeding more strongly, making this an appropriate time to introduce a richer supplementary treat into the feeding programme.

Silkworm pupae can also help make feeding time more interesting. Their distinctive natural form and texture provide variety alongside conventional pellets and can encourage active surface feeding, allowing pond keepers to observe their koi closely.

When feeding, offer a sensible quantity according to the number, size and appetite of the fish. As with any rich supplementary food, avoid excessive feeding and use Silkworm Pupae as part of a varied and appropriately managed koi diet.

The generous 800g pack provides a useful quantity for regular supplementary feeding throughout suitable warmer conditions. It is particularly well suited to koi keepers looking to add a natural, protein-rich treat to their normal feeding routine.

Whether used as an occasional reward, as part of a warm-season growth programme or simply to add variety to everyday feeding, Aqua Source Silkworm Pupae provide a high-quality natural treat designed to support growth, condition and vibrant koi colour.

How It Works

Aqua Source Silkworm Pupae provide koi with a naturally protein-rich supplementary food containing carotenoids.

The high protein content makes the pupae useful as an additional nutritional source during periods of active growth and feeding.

Carotenoids contribute to the nutritional profile and help support the vibrant appearance of ornamental koi.

Before feeding, Aqua Source recommends soaking the pupae in warm water. This softens the food and helps make it easier for koi to digest.

Once soaked, feed an appropriate quantity according to fish size, number and appetite.

For best results, use Silkworm Pupae as a supplementary treat alongside a balanced staple koi food rather than as the sole everyday diet.

Feed when pond water temperature is above 14°C.
