Sturgeon Pellets

[Yoda1]

Hi,

It has been suggested to me on a general fish forum to feed my lungfish Sturgeon pellets.

Has anyone any experience feeding pellets designed for cold water fish, to tropical fish?

Thanks

I'm feeding those pellet's 4 years now. Never have any isues.I don't feed them every day. I throw them in from time to time. Every 4-5 days or so. My plecos and catfish loves them. I noticed increased gow rate of plecos when started to feed those. I know 1 guy who have bigest pleco i have seen in my life. He is 27'' This guy tell me for this pellets.

Sturgeon pellets are typically very high in crude fat content, far too high for most tropical fish to consume on a regular basis. The potential end result of that type of diet will be oversized/obese fish, with a heavy deposition of fat in & around the organs, and a decreased lifespan.

I have ordered a small container

I will feed a small portion every 10 days or so just as a supplement

Great decission. Its just secondary food.
1 kg last me whole year. 35+ fish
throw 3-4 pellets every 10 days.
Let us know after some time if you can see some faster grow rate.
