Yes, Nico tofu is easily available in all our local supermarket. It is cheap here but most importantly very nutritious even for human.

B.Scott, various manufacturer for tofu have their calcium content range from 75mg to 89mg per 100g. Protein around 15mg per 100g etc...It is a very nutritious food recommended by our Ministry of health too.

Akai-San, koi will eat almost anything that are throw into our pond. I heard of some koi owner(wouldn't call them hobbyist) even give their fish dog food,cat food & fried chicken!!! When you have very high quality koi you wouldn't want to try that. Live food are like fresh food to human but are not so easily available & live food also might carry some parasite,bacteria which we don't know. Occassionally I give my koi sterilize frozen blood worm that I defrozed.
