Tetra Pond Growth Foodsticks for Koi


During periods of warmer weather, koi and other fish are more active and have a greater capacity to grow. In order to fulfil this increased growth potential, and to maintain the higher turnover of body tissues, they benefit from a higher protein level in their diet. However, it is essential that this protein level is in balance with the fat content of the diet, in order to allow maximum protein use and minimal waste production. Tetra Growth Sticks offer fish the extra protein that is needed, in a well balanced and complete diet, which will ensure that your fish reach their full potential during the warmer months of the year.

Tetra Pond Growth Foodsticks for Koi Overview

 

During periods of warmer weather, koi and other fish are more active and have a greater capacity to grow. In order to fulfil this increased growth potential, and to maintain the higher turnover of body tissues, they benefit from a higher protein level in their diet. However, it is essential that this protein level is in balance with the fat content of the diet, in order to allow maximum protein use and minimal waste production. Tetra Growth Sticks offer fish the extra protein that is needed, in a well balanced and complete diet, which will ensure that your fish reach their full potential during the warmer months of the year.

How it Works
Fish use protein for all sorts of bodily processes, including growth, the immune system, hormone production, reproduction and so on. In addition protein is used for energy. However, when protein is used for energy, ammonia is produced. By keeping the extra protein in Tetra Growth Sticks balanced with alternative energy sources (principally fats), ammonia production is kept to an absolute minimum, allowing the maximum amount of protein to be used by the fish. This avoids problems associated with other poorly balanced growth foods, and helps to ensure that the pond environment is kept healthy.

How to Use
Feed TetraPond Growth Sticks 2-4 times a day, feeding only as much as the fish can consume within a few minutes. TetraPond Growth Sticks can be fed from April through to September, either exclusively or mixed in with TetraPond Koi Sticks or Floating Foodsticks.

"I contacted you today (Sunday 10 Apr, 2011) and purchased a Bemuda  18000 filter pump.  All I am writing for is just to say thank you for your help and guidance and just to say what a relief it was to be given some straight forward info from someone who certainly seemed to know what he was talking about. Also, while I’m here, I’d just like to say that your website is first class. I’m just sorry that we live in Nottingham and that your centre isn’t close by.  However, a drive over is a definitely on the agenda. Thanks again. David Smith & Holden."..."The pump arrived yesterday and is now installed and working just fine. Glad we took your advice about the power, the flow is perfect."
