I bought a type of food that is suppose to be floating, but most of it acts like slow sinkers. Within a couple minute half has sunken. Also, non of my fish seem particularly interested in it for some reason.
- Wayne, thinks his koi's favorite sinking food is shrimp! But gotta turn the air off because it's too wasteful to let the bottom drain eat it.
