I am using Aqua Master growth right now and I don't think that my koi are growing as fast as I would like them to. Your input is much appreciated.
Well if you have a very short growing season, then I wouldnt expect a drastic increase in growth to begin with. Izeki, is a paste food high in protein, in fact majority of the protein is chicken meal if I am not mistaken. Here in California we have a good growing season up to 4 months of the year and in SoCal even longer. I would say if your growing season is longer than 2 or 3 months out of the year then I would buy the product, because you can see the difference in size and condition during the colder months goin into winter. Kinda pricey, but I saw worth it if you can afford it.
