I feed sinking cichlid gold, I don't have any problems. My fish don't smash it up and get bits everywhere though.

I have the same problem.
Try hooking up a large powerhead to a spongefilter, helps a lot
 
this reminds me of the patient who tells the doctor, "doctor, it hurts when i do like that (Touching is elbow)." The doctor responds, "Don't do like that."
 
as long as the tank clears by the next day, it shouldn't really matter. its just the fish chewing up the pellets, expelling bits out the sides of their gills..and it makes a mess.

you will probably find the same problem with any sinking pellet.

I get the same thing with wardley's shrimp pellets. but the fish love the stuff.
