BTW - is there any need to increase food size? I assume bigger fish will eat any size the practically can, so why not have a "one-size-fits-all" approach to feeding?

Of course, this is assuming that the contents are the same, with only the size of pellet varying...


It not the size that counts Ryan.... :mrgreen:

Well it is in terms of the size the fish can best eat when smaller...

But more so that the protein requirement when the fish are smaller and growing rapidly.... typically 40-50% protein in 2mm pellets.... ranging to 25-35% in the 6mm size...

Hi Derek,
I would like to take over some of your pellets if you still have some. I can come into Caboolture anytime to pick up.
Where would you be?......supposing you still have....
Cheers, Ira
