Our Fry Food is fed to over 500,000 Koi Fry every year at Cuttlebrook Koi Farm, the UK's leading breeder of Koi Carp. Every fish we produce has been fed this food during their development, giving them the perfect start in life.
Crushing up food to feed your fry?
Feeding your fry crushed-up food (even “high protein” diets) can have a detrimental impact on the growth of your Koi fry. Most used feeds on the market contain around 33-40% protein, however, this is inadequate for the needs of developing fry, regularly leading to bent spines, tails, curled-out gill covers, and incorrectly developed fins. Our Fry Food contains 56% protein.
High-quality food is a must
To avoid any development issues, high-quality fry food is a must! We advise feeding this diet until the fish are at least 3” inches. Even after this stage, a high-quality diet of at least 40% protein is still required to ensure the best growth and development from your fish.
Pellet Size Guide
As a rule of thumb, a Fry between 0.5-1.5 inches (1-3cm) will eat 0.5-0.8mm Fry Food, and a larger Jumbo Fry between 1.5-2 inches (3-5cm) will eat 0.8-1.2mm Fry Food. Please see the chart below for a complete sizing guide.
KOI SIZE (INCHES) | FEED | PELLET SIZE (MM) |
0.5-1.5 | FRY FOOD | 0.5-0.8 |
1.5-2 | FRY FOOD | 0.8-1.2 |
2-4 | PREMIUM JUNIOR | 2 |
4 | PREMIUM GROWTH | 3 |
6 + | PREMIUM GROWTH | 4.5 |
16 + | PREMIUM GROWTH | 6 |
