Product Information
Full details
NT Labs Medikoi Growth is an ideal dietary solution for pond fish owners looking to accelerate fish development without compromising water quality. Specifically formulated for rapid growth, this 6mm pellet feed provides a high-protein diet that supports muscle health and immune function. While highly effective for young or rapidly growing populations, users should be mindful of feeding volumes during cooler months when fish metabolism naturally slows down.

FAQs
At what temperature should I start feeding Medikoi Growth?
It is best to start feeding when the water temperature is consistently above 12 degrees Celsius.
Can I use this food for all pond fish?
Yes, it is suitable for most pond fish, though the 6mm pellet size is best suited for medium to large fish.
Does this food affect water color?
No, it is formulated to minimize waste and does not contain artificial dyes that would discolor the water.
How long will a 3kg bag last?
Duration depends on the biomass of your pond, but it is recommended to use the product within 6 months of opening for maximum nutrient potency.
Should I soak the pellets before feeding?
It is not necessary, as the formula is highly digestible, but some keepers soak them in pond water to help the pellets sink faster.
Troubleshooting
Fish are ignoring the pellets
Ensure the water temperature is within the range for active feeding and check that the food is fresh; discard any feed older than 6 months.
Water appears cloudy after feeding
Reduce the quantity of pellets per feed. You are likely overfeeding, causing excess waste that the biological filter cannot process immediately.
Pellets sinking too quickly
If the pellets sink before consumption, ensure your pond's surface is free of aggressive water movement or aeration directly under the feeding area.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Promotes rapid and healthy growth rates
- High-quality ingredients ensure minimal waste
- Excellent source of Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids
- Does not leave oily residue on pond surfaces
- Supports vibrant color and immune health
Cons
- Specifically sized at 6mm, which may be too large for fry
- High protein content requires careful monitoring of water parameters
- Requires proper storage to maintain freshness of fish oils
Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal results, ensure the food is stored in a cool, dry, and dark location to prevent the degradation of essential vitamins and the oxidation of the fish oils. When introducing this feed, transition gradually by mixing it with the current diet over several days to avoid digestive upset. Always check the pond's ammonia and nitrite levels periodically when increasing feeding intensity, as higher protein diets result in higher metabolic waste. During winter, switch to a lower-protein, wheat-germ-based food as the fish's digestive system enters dormancy.
