FishScience Fancy Goldfish Sinking Pellets

Fish Science Fancy Goldfish Sinking Pellets are a purpose-built diet for fancy goldfish varieties including Fantails, Lionheads, Orandas, and Ryukins. The sinking format is key — fancy goldfish are prone to buoyancy issues when gulping air at the surface, and a sinking pellet removes that risk entirely while ensuring every fish in the tank competes equally for food.

Insect-Based Nutrition

The formula centres on insect meal, which more closely reflects the natural invertebrate-heavy diet of goldfish than conventional grain or fish-meal-led foods. This approach supports healthy digestion and helps reduce the waste output that so commonly drives water quality problems in goldfish aquaria. It is a meaningful nutritional shift, not a marketing gesture.

Colour and Condition

Natural colour enhancement comes from a combination of Spirulina algae, paprika, and krill — ingredients that support the development of reds, oranges, and yellows without artificial dyes. Beyond colour, the inclusion of Beta Glucans, garlic, and omega-3 oils from salmon provides broad support for immune function and overall condition.
