They will eat them yes. But with goldfish dont over feed with high protein food or they can bloat. Are there any other options over there for fish food |

Thanks Mantis , I am feeding them duckweed in addition to the pellets , I am trying to get fish feed pellets but it is not available . I do not know the difference between the chicken pellets and fish pellets , what do you think the difference between them ? |

I think the fish pellets would be higher in protein than the chicken pellets... And would more likely have the amino acid profile to optimise fish growth,... as well as the other minerals necessary... Bit of a problem if you can't get them though... in which case the chicken pellets will do... but definitely supplement with nthe duckweed... |
