It is now already my second order this product, and the favorite food of my fish. I have in the pond ide, bitterlings, Shubunkin etc., and which are crazy about the Pond Vario. The flakes of JBL I have, but it my fish are not quite like that. Once eventually the flakes are exhausted, I'll stay only at the Pond Vario unless I find an even better alternative. (Except live food)
