Product Information

Full details

NT Labs Medikoi Probiotic Wheatgerm With Garlic is designed for pond owners looking to support the health of their fish during the cooler transition periods of late autumn, winter, and early spring. This specialized floating pellet provides a highly digestible diet that supports immune function and digestive health, though its low-protein profile makes it unsuitable as a primary summer growth food.

FAQs

At what temperature should I start feeding this?

This food is ideal for temperatures between 6°C and 12°C. Always monitor your fish's behavior.

Can I feed this during the summer?

It is not recommended. Summer feeds require higher protein levels to support growth and energy requirements.

Why is garlic included in the feed?

Garlic acts as a natural appetite stimulant and helps protect the fish by acting as a mild repellent against skin parasites.

Are the pellets suitable for all pond fish?

The 6mm pellet size is suitable for most adult koi and goldfish, but may be too large for small fry or very young fish.

How long does the bag stay fresh?

If kept in a cool, dry, airtight container, the feed will maintain its nutritional profile until the expiry date.

Troubleshooting

Fish are ignoring the food.

Check the water temperature; if it is too cold, fish will naturally stop feeding. Alternatively, ensure the food is fresh and not stale.

Food is left floating long after feeding.

You are likely overfeeding. Reduce the portion size to what the fish can consume within 3-5 minutes.

Water appears slightly cloudy after feeding.

Ensure that any uneaten pellets are removed immediately with a net to prevent organic matter decomposition.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Supports immune system function during vulnerable winter months
  • Highly digestible formula reduces nitrogenous waste in the pond
  • Garlic content helps repel skin parasites
  • Floating pellets allow for precise portion control and monitoring
  • Includes probiotics to maintain healthy gut flora

Cons

  • Not suitable for high-growth periods in summer
  • Limited effectiveness if water temperatures are too low for feeding
  • Pellet size (6mm) may be too large for very small juvenile fish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal results, store the 5kg container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the probiotics. When transitioning your fish from summer feed, mix the Medikoi Probiotic Wheatgerm with your existing food over a few days. Always monitor your local water temperature; if the pond temperature drops below the point where fish cease feeding entirely, cease all feeding until the arrival of spring. Ensure the container lid is sealed tightly after each use to prevent moisture from entering and degrading the pellet quality.
