Xtreme Goldfish Pellets
Xtreme Goldfish Pellets are a 1.5 mm krill-based, semi-floating formula built specifically for goldfish. Roughly 8 or 9 of every 10 pellets stay at the surface while 1 or 2 slowly sink, so both top and midwater feeders get their share, and any leftovers drift down gently instead of fouling the surface. Browse the rest of our aquarium foods while you stock up.
Why Xtreme Goldfish Pellets
- Krill-first formula. Krill, shrimp, and squid meal lead the ingredient list for high palatability and natural color enhancement.
- Semi-floating design. Most pellets float, a few slowly sink, so shy and midwater goldfish are not left out.
- Gentler on fancy goldfish. Because the pellets are not aggressively floating, fish gulp less air at the surface, which helps sensitive fancy varieties.
- Added spirulina and vitamins. Includes spirulina, stabilized vitamin C, and a full vitamin and mineral pack for healthy growth.
Three Sizes
Pick the size that fits your setup:
- 5 oz (142 g). Great for a single goldfish or a small tank.
- 10 oz (283 g). A step up for growing fish or a couple of goldfish.
- 20 oz (567 g). Best value for ponds, big appetites, or multiple tanks.
Feeding Directions
Feed 2 to 3 times a day, offering only what your goldfish finish in about two minutes. Remove any uneaten pellets. Goldfish beg constantly, so feed small amounts to avoid overfeeding and to keep water quality high.

FAQ
Do these pellets float or sink?
Most float. About 8 or 9 out of every 10 pellets stay at the surface, while 1 or 2 slowly sink. After a few minutes, uneaten pellets begin to sink slowly.
How often should I feed my goldfish?
Feed 2 to 3 small meals a day, only what your fish finish in about two minutes. Goldfish are big beggars, so avoid overfeeding.
Are they good for fancy goldfish?
Yes. The semi-floating design means fish gulp less air at the surface, which is easier on fancy varieties that are prone to buoyancy trouble.
Can I use these in a pond?
Yes. Goldfish and other coldwater pond fish take them readily. The 20 oz size is the most economical for ponds.
