NT Labs Medikoi Sturgeon Jumbo Food

NT Labs Medikoi Sturgeon Jumbo Food

A complete 8mm sinking diet for larger sturgeon and sterlet

The 4.5 mm and 8 mm Sturgeon foods use the standard declaration below. NT Labs publishes a different Junior 2 mm analysis, which should not be transferred to these sizes. Feed other pond fish separately first if they compete for the sinking food. Sturgeon can continue taking this food down to 4°C according to NT Labs; observe their appetite and adjust the ration rather than stopping solely because koi feeding has slowed.

Managing the daily ration

Begin with small portions and watch the fish feeding before adding more. The manufacturer’s stated consumption time is a limit for a portion, not an instruction to keep adding food throughout that period. Remove leftovers and reduce feeding when appetite or water quality deteriorates.

Introduce a new food gradually and monitor water quality when increasing feeding. Observe smaller and less assertive fish as well as the strongest feeders. Good nutrition works alongside suitable filtration, oxygen and pond maintenance.

For sinking pellets, check that food reaches the intended fish. Feed competing fish separately where necessary and observe the feeding area below the surface; pellets disappearing from view are not proof they have been eaten.

Storage and freshness

Keep food sealed in its original packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use a clean, dry scoop and keep pond water out of the pack. Follow the best-before date and the current label’s instructions.
