Mostly the pellets and bloodworms can be found in most LFS.

Also can add in your list a bag of frozen peas. I feed peas to my goldfishes once a week to help them clear their digestive tract.

alternatively, you can also diy your own goldfish food. Google around for the steps and recipes.

What type of goldfish are you keeping?

Yup. that's what I observed. But waste color depends on what you feed them.

At times,I feed them with wheat germ pellets (light brown colored pellets,hikari brand). Their waste is the same color as the pellet.

Students like me can only afford the small packets. Haha.

For red packet, it's small round pellets.

For blue, purple, green packets, it's small sticks.

The packet is written that they are all sinking pellets baby stick which means all of the saki hikari range are made up of small sized pellets/sticks.

I feed my GF with papaya and bananas as they contain vitamins. Any left over, just remove out from the tank in case of polluting the water.
