Ive used this pellet as my main staple for well over 10yrs now… 2.2lbs used to be $14.95… its been climbing since. Went to order from my regular place today and its $29.00 a bag. Thats high way robbery and i can’t afford it for the amount i need. Any recommendations on something close size and color wise? I usually order around 12-16lbs at a time. Thanks! 💀🤙

2.2lbs for $14.95!!! Feck me sideways! That's roughly £12-£13 in the uk. I always have some hikari gold medium sinking pellets in my fish larder. The largest bag I can get is the 342g (12oz) bag.....and they cost anywhere from £10-£13 each!!

I've looked online for larger bags but I cannot for the life in me find anything bigger than the 342g they offer.

I would absolutely love to be paying your price, and for 2.2lbs at that. Honestly the mind boggles.
 
Hmmm, it's $22usd/bag here. Wait, is that $29 you're talking about per kilo? Not the little 350g pouches? That'd be $66usd/kg.

Yeah I use to buy their carnivore/massivore for my bichirs but gotten way to expensive. Now I just buy the 12mm sinking pellets 25lbs for my bichirs saving so much now

12oz i can get for $10.49 here… Surprised u can’t find it in bulk at all. Grass is always greener tho. Id like to have ur tackle available here for fishing 😂… it drives me absolutely insane the same brands that sell products in ur neck of the woods do not offer the same stuff here in the states despite pricing. So i guess were in the same boat my friend lol 🤦‍♂️💀

Looks like they raised prices everywhere. My last order of massivore was $50 for 2.2lbs. Today it's $59.
