Nishikoi Wheatgerm is an expertly formulated, low-protein diet designed specifically for Koi and other pond fish during the cooler months of the year when their metabolism slows down. By utilizing highly digestible, vegetable-based ingredients, this floating small-pellet food supports efficient digestion and helps maintain optimal water quality by minimizing ammonia excretion during periods when pond filtration is less active. While it is excellent for winter health and immune support, users should note that its low-protein profile is intended for seasonal use rather than as a year-round growth formula.

It is generally recommended to switch to a wheatgerm diet when the pond water temperature consistently falls below 10°C to 12°C.
While it won't harm the fish, it lacks the higher protein levels necessary for growth during the active summer months; it is best used as a seasonal diet.
Yes, this product is suitable for all types of pond fish, including goldfish and smaller Koi.
Usage depends on your stocking density and water temperature, but the 10kg bucket is designed to provide a long-lasting supply for the winter season.
The color enhancers are based on Spirulina, Astaxanthin, and Canthaxanthin, which are standard natural-derived additives for fish health and pigment support.
Check water temperature; if the pond is extremely cold, fish may naturally enter a state of dormancy and stop eating entirely.
Reduce your feeding portions; only provide what the fish can consume within 5 minutes and remove any uneaten pellets immediately.
To ensure the longevity of the Nishikoi Wheatgerm 10kg supply, store the bucket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can degrade the vitamins and color enhancers. Always ensure the lid is sealed tightly after every use to prevent moisture ingress or pest contamination. This food is fully compatible with all common Koi and pond fish species. When transitioning your fish from summer feed, you can mix the wheatgerm pellets with your existing food for a few days to help the fish adjust to the new diet without stress.
