What can I do to improve the colour of my koi?
The basic colour patterns of your koi are determined by their genetic make-up, but to reach their full potential they require a dietary source of colour enhancers (carotenoids). This is because koi, like all fish, cannot synthesise the pigments that are deposited in their colour cells (chromatophores). To maintain or improve the colour of your koi it is important to feed a diet that contains a good source of carotenoids. KoiExcellence diets contain such ingredients and are therefore ideal for maintaining good colouration. KoiExcellence Performance is especially good for optimising colouration, as it contains additional quantities of carotenoids. |
