Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations Optimal not so optimal for smaller fish?

IMHO if the volume a pellet occupies weighs less than an equivalent volume of water, it will float. I suspect density of the pellet is the key factor. Floating pellets are less dense than equivalent size pellets that sink, i.e. floating pellets weigh less than equivalent size sinking pellets. Following that logic, a fish that consumes a sinking pellet gets more nutrition than his pond buddy that ate an equivalent size floating one.
