Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Feeding Purina Aquamax Sportfish MVP Date Code

I prefer as much floating as possible so that I can see feeding response and see how much food is consumed. Sinking is needed initially in some aspects to get harder to feed train fish actually feed trained, but then once they are feed trained they all will take floating food. I have feed trained Hybrid Crappie and Redear Sunfish and both will eat floating food. Yellow Perch, SMB, LMB, HSB, BG, HBG, CC, FHM, GSH, Common Carp, and all species of trout eat floating food.

The best FCR that I have seen has been from the old Optimal, now Endurance fish food. 40# of that feed was equivalent to 60# of Purina Aquamax in FCR.
