Been feeding Optimal the past 3 yrs and I see 3 distinct positive changes as I switched from Aquamax and other brands:
1 - Generally less algae in my pond.
2 - Weight, color, and health of LMB has improved.
3 - BG/RES seem to be producing more resulting in more year round forage than I've seen since building the pond.
Bonus; Justin is an 'engaged' manufacturer that is truly tuned into his customers.
*I've continually hydrated all food prior to hand-feeding it to the fish because it is fully consumed - and not spit-out like the dry food was. Done this for 6-7 years now.
