So I have been feeding my fish Optimal BG Jr, well the last time I ordered I went for the Optimal BG. I opened it up in a hurry and poured it in the storage bin. I noticed it looked different but it didn't register. I threw out two cups to my fish and then went and looked at the bag.

I somehow ordered Optimal Aquaponic Feed, so should I just keep feeding them this? Or just dump it out in the pond? I compared the contents and they seem to be very close.

38/8 vs 42/10 for the Jr. I'd save it for when the fish are older and feed it to them this Fall. Younger fish need a hotter feed.

I ended up putting it out on the grass in a low spot by the pond. One of the guys from optimal told me I should not feed it because of the extra minerals in it.

Another lesson learned the hard way, verify your order prior to paying. It was completely my fault
