Never had any issues with my kois or goldfish eating this during the summer or winter. The pellets are perfect size for the fish to eat and can eat more the 2 or 3 at a time. Always fresh. Great product for the price. It does not really make the pond cloudy either . They can digest it after throwing it straight in or if it sits for a lottle bit it stays in a ball and doesnt break apart into a million pieces. I buy it all the time ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good food. Good price *by on Reviewed in the United States July 13, 2026* My fish grow fast and have remained very healthy for years ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fish eat this *by on Reviewed in the United States July 31, 2026* No complaints from the fish. ## Frequently Bought Together - Blue Ridge Koi Fish Food 5lb - Koi Food 3/16” Color Rich Formula Goldfish Food, Premium Fish Food for Ponds, Ponds Fish Food, Koi Food Fall and Winter Fish Food, Floating Pond Pellets Fish Food - Blue Ridge Koi Fish Food 5lb - Koi Food Mini Growth Formula Goldfish Food, Premium Fish Food for Ponds, Ponds Fish Food, Koi Food Fall and Winter Fish Food, Floating Pond Pellets Fish Food - Blue Ridge Koi Fish Food 5lb - Koi Food 3/16” Large Growth Formula, Goldfish Food, Premium Fish Food for Ponds, Ponds Fish Food, Koi Food Fall and Winter Fish Food, Floating Pond Pellets --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/14809539-blue-ridge-koi-fish-food-growth-formula-color-rich-3](https://www.desertcart.us/products/14809539-blue-ridge-koi-fish-food-growth-formula-color-rich-3) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-10-19*
