Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Feeding Aquamax issues?

Tony my experience is in line with yours. My fish have preferred hydrated pellets over dry since I started feeding 8 years ago, without exception, every species, every time. I find when fish appear satiated on dry pellets, they will continue to hammer slowly sinking hydrated pellets until they literally regurgitate them. My fish are especially fond of AM LMB formula as they hydrate quickly, I rip off a portion, and toss into cages or around the dock. I'd say my fish have historically preferred hydrated over dry by at least a ratio of 10:1. In my experience, even at ice out when nothing but GSH are taking dry pellets, all fish will eat hydrated - at least a little, but reject floating dry food.
