Pro Line Aqua Staple 15kg 3mm

Staple food for dependable everyday koi feeding

Pro Line Aqua Staple 15kg 3mm is a complete daily koi food for regular feeding, maintenance and general pond fish condition within the Pro-Line Aqua koi food range. It is set out so customers can compare the food by feeding purpose, season, pellet behaviour, bag size and nutritional profile, rather than choosing only by price or weight.

It can be used across much of the feeding season, provided the amount offered is adjusted to water temperature, fish activity and water test results. The floating pellet format makes feeding behaviour easy to monitor, helping you avoid overfeeding and making it easier to spot any fish that are hanging back. Available options include 15kg pack sizes and 3mm pellet size options, so it can be matched to pond size, fish size and how quickly you are likely to use the food while it is still fresh.

All season, staple and balance foods are useful as the backbone of a koi feeding routine because they are easier to fit around normal changes in temperature and fish activity. They can be alternated with growth, colour or wheatgerm foods when the season or feeding goal changes.

Everyday feeding, water quality and freshness

The nutritional information below keeps the key formula notes and analytical values in a consistent list format, making it easier to compare protein, oil and fat, fibre, ash, vitamins and specialist ingredients across the koi food range.

When comparing koi foods, the main questions are whether you need growth, colour, wheatgerm, health support, sinking behaviour or a dependable everyday diet. The best choice may also change through the year, so this food should be compared with similar products in the same brand range and with alternative foods designed for different water temperatures.

For everyday feeding, consistency is usually more important than simply feeding as much as possible. A steady routine with the right pellet size, sensible portions and regular water testing will normally give better long term results than constantly changing food or overfeeding.

Bag size and pellet size also matter. Large bags can be better value on ponds with a high feeding rate, but smaller bags are often the better choice where food would otherwise sit open for too long; similarly, smaller pellets suit young koi and mixed fish, while larger pellets are usually better for bigger koi that feed confidently.

Whatever food you choose, feeding should be adjusted to the pond rather than the calendar alone. Regular checks of ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, KH and pH are especially important when increasing feed, changing food, adding new fish or feeding heavily during warm weather.
