Comment on Organic Fish Feed! by slywoman

Yep, I’m experiencing the same thing, Jonathan. Please be patient with the continuous improvement process on this feed…we are pioneering new territory and some of the additives that are available to a non-organic feed producer to get the feed to float are not available to an organic producer. There is a new formulation in the works right now that will have NO fish meal and NO soy, but they are honestly having an even bigger issue with trying to get it to float than the current batch. We may actually run out of our supply for a while until this gets fixed, and even then I can’t promise 100% floating…but I can promise an outstanding, organic, GMO-free, fish meal free, soy free feed that your fish will love.

Hello, so I bought the feed and the fish like it. I do have one issue I would like to see resolved though. Only about 25% of the feed floats. This is incredibly frustrating because it makes it virtually impossible for me to gauge what is being eaten and what is not. As you know when fish change their eating habits it’s a great tip off that something is wrong. I don’t get the benefit of monitoring how much they eat when over half of the food sinks.

Sylvia, Murray, Gina and Tonya put together an outstanding training which I highly recommend to anyone interested in the field of Aquaponics. It truly is the “Complete Course”. The bonus of course was the phenomenal people who attended and the comradery we shared and the networking we enjoyed. If you’re thinking about attending the next course. Just do it. You won’t regret it.

I fell fortunate to have been able to go to the training and I have to say it hit the mark. They covered everything I needed to get started and I got to meet some great people.
