I'm feeding quite a few different manufactured foods, especially fry foods, and loads of BBS. I'm trying to tweak my old recipe(s) a bit in hopes of making it a little better. The food was a mix of beef, sea food, spinach, carrots, paprika, vitamins and minerals among a few other things. Fry grew quicker and bigger, adults grew nice and big and spawned more often with larger batches of fry/eggs and colors popped. But when I started feeding my home made foods I noticed a real big difference. I always had different foods to feed out. I didn't feed my slop exclusively only a few times a week. One of my old recipes called for gelatin as a binder the other didn't. You could also add spirulina, astaxanthin if you have it instead of paprika, avian vitamins (which are water soluble) or any other gross non mammal substance you think would be good. Press inside freezer backs to thin flat slabs you can snap pieces off of, and freeze. So my blender heavy recipe for hipster fish would be: fresh or frozen shrimp or mock crab, dulse, paprika, peas and carrots baby food, cricket powder and gelatin to bind it up. I think it would be excellent in the old recipes, as fish gobble it up. I can also get dulse, a dried seaweed snack (it goes with beer) when I'm on the east coast.

It's available here in stores - not the cheapest but it would go a long way. If I make another batch, I'll probably add cricket powder.

I have used it for 10 years, and it's a good supplement. It's quite inexpensive in the USA, and it is the best thing for making my boesemani pop. I always wondered if it was sympathetic magic, the old I want reds so I'll feed something orange effect.īTW - there is a type of bulk colour food that is the only type I would buy from anyone but KJE or Poppa Ryno. I don't know if it worked as well as the algae powder, but it's way cheaper.

Astaxanthin prices have skyrocketed, but the old timers used mild paprika powder to enhance colour. I started using pureed baby food vegetables in my last few batch, and with gelatin, they were good. Here, fish is cheaper than beef, and getting beefheart would be complicated. There are a lot of old diehard ingredients we can replace with easier options. You wouldn't like to eat the same food 365 days a year, nor do your Koi! To provide some variety for your Koi, try these combinations.I was thinking about the older recipes after posting yesterday.
