 A diet of Kenzen Koi Food promotes the true potential of your koi by meeting their unique nutritional needs and preferences.
While they are many generations of selective breeding removed from their Japanese carp ancestors, they have retained an appetite for foods provided by Mother Nature like algae, snails, worms, insects, etc. This aquatic diet is high in digestible protein, but supplying a diet of snails, worms, and insects to a koi collection is very impractical.
That's why koi keepers have adapted pelletized food to make feeding and keeping their fish easier. But not every pelletized koi food is a suitable substitute for a natural diet. Some include ingredients like soybeans, wheat, alfalfa, bran and other field crops. These terrestrial plants are highly foreign to koi. The proteins terrestrial crops produce can't be digested as well as those from animal sources like whole herring meal. We, at Kenzen Koi Food, disagree with that practice and do not include proteins from soybeans or other terrestrial plants in our formulation. Rather, Kenzen Koi Primary Diet Koi Food and Kenzen Koi Color Food do not contain any land-based plant proteins or grain products, giving your fish the digestibility that Mother Nature has always intended.
