Hikari Lionhead Mini 350 g is a sinking pellet diet made for fancy goldfish with rounded bodies and developed head growth, particularly lionheads and ranchu. It also suits appropriately sized orandas and other fancy goldfish that feed more comfortably below the surface.
Why it suits fancy goldfish
- Sinking mini pellets: encourage feeding below the surface instead of repeated surface gulping.
- Head-growth focus: developed for varieties selected for prominent wen or head development, while genetics, age and overall husbandry remain important.
- Small pellet size: easier for many compact-bodied fancy goldfish to manage than large koi or pond pellets.
- Targeted feeding: allows keepers to monitor each fish's appetite and avoid competition from faster tankmates.
Suitable for
Lionhead, ranchu and oranda goldfish of a suitable mouth size. This is a specialised fancy-goldfish food, not a replacement for species-specific diets for tropical fish or plecos.
Feeding guidance
Offer small amounts that the fish can finish promptly, once or twice daily according to water temperature, age and appetite. Observe slower-swimming individuals to make sure they receive their share. Remove leftovers and avoid overfeeding, which can worsen water quality and digestive problems in fancy goldfish.
Net weight: 350 g. Food format: sinking mini pellets. Hikari item code: 05234.
