R 695.00 – Sold Out
Unlock the true championship potential of your growing Koi with Saki-Hikari Balance (Medium Pellet). Trusted by professional breeders across Japan, this highly advanced daily maintenance diet provides the perfect ratio of premium proteins, carbohydrates, and amino acids required for steady, perfectly proportioned growth. It ensures your mid-sized Koi pack on high-quality muscle and mass without developing unsightly, unhealthy fat deposits.
The secret to this professional-grade formula lies in the inclusion of the legendary Hikari-Germ™ probiotics. This specialized diet ensures your Koi maintain optimal digestive health, pristine white skin (Shiroji), and a flawless, torpedo-shaped body throughout the peak feeding season, all while drastically improving the water quality of your pond.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Powered by Hikari-Germ™: Contains living, naturally occurring probiotics that multiply in the gut to outcompete bad bacteria and promote maximum nutrient absorption. Because your Koi digest their food more efficiently, they produce significantly less waste.
-
Cleaner, Clearer Water: The Hikari-Germ remains active in the fish waste, continuing to break it down even after it leaves the fish. This dramatically improves water clarity and eases the biological burden on your pond's filtration system.
-
Championship Body Conformation: Free of heavy color enhancers that can sometimes muddy the pristine white (Shiroji) of your Koi. The Balance formula focuses purely on structural growth, helping your fish develop and maintain the classic, robust conformation required for show-class specimens.
-
Premium Staple Diet: Crafted with high-grade fish meal and a highly precise blend of essential vitamins and minerals, serving as the ultimate daily diet during the warmer months when your Koi's metabolism is highest.
-
Medium Pellet Size: The most versatile size for any pond. These floating pellets (approx. 5.0 mm – 5.5 mm) are ideal for fish measuring 8 inches (20 cm) or greater. They are large enough to satisfy growing Koi, yet small enough to be easily consumed without excess chewing and waste.

Feeding Guide
To maximize the growth and health benefits of Saki-Hikari Balance, adjust your feeding schedule based on your pond's water temperature and the activity level of your Koi:
-
Above 68°F (20°C): Feed 2 to 4 times daily. This is the optimal temperature range for digestion, allowing for maximum feeding and rapid growth.
-
Between 59°F and 68°F (15°C – 20°C): Feed 1 to 2 times daily. Monitor your fish's activity closely and only feed during the warmest part of the day.
-
Below 59°F (15°C): We recommend transitioning your Koi to a highly digestible cold-water diet, such as Saki-Hikari Multi Season, as their metabolism begins to naturally slow down.
