    Queni koi ultimate mix anyone feed it

    Anybody feed this food just wondering if it’s ok I’ve been feeding the 3 mm wheat germ from queni koi and pleased with that and koi love it I’m wanting a descent summer food and the ultimate mix combines growth colour and immune stimulants so before I order was trying to see if anyone uses this food

    Hi Dave,I used this last year with great results,but I did get some brown water and I put it down to the food.
    Though others have used it without getting the brown water so maybe I fed too much.
    Very good growth rates,actually the best I have ever had.
    I have used Q/k food for a few years now and I will continue to do so,but maybe go back to Japmix.

    To be honest Dave I think the Ultimate is better if it wasn't for the brown water.
    Jap mix I had no problems with as does a few on here,so maybe try small portions first.
    I always buy from Q/k in 15 kg bags for the price,but maybe get a 2kg tub to try first.

    I have a full sack of Premium growth but I cant comment on it yet.
    Let me know how you get on with the Ultimate as I would like to use it again as the koi loved it.

    I have been running them on cheap and cheerful multiseason. Its cheap and cheerful rebranded coppens feed.

    Other than for Tosai just cant / haven't seen any difference in terms of growth / development.

    For sure unless the water temps are beyond 23C in practical results I haven't seen benefit in going for a feed with a higher protein level..

    Hi ive been using it for a couple of years now & can't fault it. No issues with brown water or clarity for me. I get good growth & the fish love it so will continue with it.
