fishy_t Posted April 15, 2007 Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 Does it sink? Cause Colour Bits don't always sink which isn't so good for my Fronts.... As far as I know it isn't in NZ so we have to get it sent over from Aussie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakyfish Posted April 15, 2007 Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 The vast majority of the food sinks straight away with some of it floatin for alittle bit Not long though The large fish range is perfect for your front I know alot of breeders here are using it with great success Brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jewelz Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 For those that are interested, the following are the regulations covering fish food importation: 7.1.1 non-viable organisms to be used for aquatic animal or fish food; and 7.1.2 viable Artemia salina and Artemia fransiscana cysts to be used for aquatic animal or fish food. NOTE: Artemia species must be noted in accompanying documentation or on packaging. 7.2 Shelf-stable fish food and fish bait may be given biosecurity clearance without zoosanitary certification or treatment provided it is packaged for retail sale in hermetically sealed containers. 7.3 Non shelf-stable fish food and fish bait may be given biosecurity clearance provided they are accompanied by ZOOSANITARY CERTIFICATION (see PART D: ZOOSANITARY CERTIFICATION) with the exception of: 7.3.1 marine fish that has been frozen to below -18ºC for a minimum of 18 hours prior to importation. NOTE: Species and country/region of origin must be noted in accompanying documentation. http://www.biosecurity.govt.nz/imports/ ... ic.all.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
