Grower-13 EF by Alltech Coppens is a complete floating fish feed for carp (such as grass carp, common carp, koi carp, ide, goldfish, most aquarium fish).
Grower-13 EF is water stable. This makes easier to feed the fish and measure the feed amount in comparison to the sinking feed. Fish should be able to consume the feed within 10 minutes. The excess of the feed is necessary to remove from the water and the feeding amount should be decreased. It is not recommended to feed carp when the water temperature drops below 10 ºC.

If there are both smaller and bigger fish in the pond, it is important to notice that larger fish will prefer smaller-sized feed, but smaller fish cannot grab larger feed. Therefore, offering granules of different sizes and structures ensures that all fish get the necessary amount of feed.
The feed should be stored in a dry and shaded place. It is recommended to use up the feed within one season.
