Hikari Gold Large Pellet – Premium Colour Enhancing Daily Diet for Koi & Pond Fish

A premium daily diet built on decades of koi breeding and show experience, formulated to bring out brilliant natural colour, support strong growth and help maintain immune health in warmer water conditions.

This large pellet (approx. 7.2-8.2mm) suits bigger koi that have outgrown a medium pellet, giving them a bite size that matches their larger mouths without excess waste. Available in 5kg. If you’ve got smaller koi in the same pond, our Hikari Gold Medium pellet suits koi around 15-25cm. Want to take colour and condition even further?

Feeding

Regularly monitor your pond’s water temperature and adjust feeding frequency and portions accordingly. Avoid overfeeding, and always remove any uneaten food after feeding to keep your pond healthy.

  • 20-30°C: Feed 2-4 times daily, providing no more food than your fish will finish within 2 minutes.
  • 15-20°C: Feed up to twice daily, with the same 2-minute consumption guideline. For best results, feed during the warmer part of the day.
  • 11-15°C: Switch to a more easily digestible cold-water food, as your koi’s metabolism starts to slow.
  • Below 11°C: Feeding should be minimal to none, koi become largely inactive and struggle to digest food properly at these temperatures.
