How to choose the sinking fish feed pellet or floating fish feed pellets? To be packed into 20KG PP/Nylon Bag by GW-450-550-650 Automatic Open-mouth Bagging Machine

Commercial fish feed diets be classified into floating(extruded) or traditional sinking(pressure-pelleted) pellets. Both floating and sinking feed can produce satisfactory growth, but some fish species prefer floating, others sinking. Now that, which is better type of fish feed pellets? To sink or to float? This is a question. Before that, we would like to make a statement that neither can be considered absolutely superior compared to the other and your choice of whether to use floating or sinking pellets mainly depends on which type of fish species that you have.

However, the use of floating fish feeds provide more advantages compared to sinking fish feeds.

Reduce waste: Sinking fish feeds that remain at the bottom of the tank or fishpond will often get lost and wasted. But the floating feed pellets can retain its shape, even after being in the water for many hours, uneaten feed are still intact.

Decrease disease: Sinking feed pellet that remain at the bottom of tank or fishpond will eventually rot, which may give rise to proliferation of bacteria and spreading of harmful fish disease.

Convenient observation: Farmers can directly observe the feeding intensity of fish and adjust feeding rates accordingly. Determining whether feeding rates are too low or too high is important in maximizing fish growth and feed use efficiency.

Anyway, no matter which fish feed you make, we can can equipped with different linear weigher to pack from 10-50KG fish feed pellets, the packing speed can up to 8-11 bags/min. It can save the labor and incease the production rate (GAOGE PAK).
