As usual Bill Cody is right. You should be able to get AquaMax from the same dealer. I place an order with my feed mill and they usually have it for me for pickup with a week. Ask them to get it in the same time they get their other Purina Mills products. If they can't do it, they aren't really trying and some other feed mill in the area that handles Purina Mills products should be able to.

Remember not to get more than you can use in 3 months. It can lose vitamins (especially Vitamin C, and it could get moldy after 3 months which can be lethal to your fish or make them sick. It's not worth the risk to hold onto feed too long. Fish Farmers know better.

Aquamax is divided into Carnivore ( trout, hybrid striped bass, yellow perch, and red drum diets) and Omnivore diets ( Catfish and Talapia). I would feed bluegill the carnivore diet.

The sizes are:

5D00 Fry Powder
5D01 Fry Starter 100 0.8 mm
5D02 Fry Starter 200 1.2 mm
5D03 Fingerling Starter 300 1/16 "
5D04 Grower 400 3/32"
5D05 Grower 500 3/16"
5D06 Grower 600 1/4 "

I wouldn't be afraid to mix a couple of sizes if you have smaller and larger fish.

Hope this helps. If you have any questions for Purina Mills they can be reached at 1-800-227-8941


If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
