Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Feeding Aquamax local pricing, just curious.

So what does that tell us ? I would like some real info on the products.

I went to TS over the weekend and they had GFC and a Cargill Brand (something like Sportsman's Choice Trophy Feeds) - both all purpose feeds. I read the labels of both. GFC listed both fish meal and fish oil as ingredients. No fish meal in SC mostly grains.

Can't find on Cargill web site but did find this on TS site
