fish food?

What have you found to be the best brand of fish food? Also what is it with the smell of fish food. Those flakes stink, or is it just me?

I don't use flakes, I always use pellets and they smell a little if you hold them up to your nose. LOL I use any brand that is on sale.

I also use pellets. Tetra.

me too. My fish don't seem to care much about the brand.

Hikari is really the best on the market as far as I'm concerned. If you don't want to use Hikari Microbe-lift has a good variety of foods, too. A good food does not pollute the water and you need to feed less of it. The foods do have a slight smell which fades with age. Don't over buy food as it does lose nutritional value over time. Never freeze pellets or flakes. Fish also enjoy some fresh foods such as peas and watermelon.

My little one threw a bunch of Cheerios in the pond, the fish loved them! I don't know if it is good so i haven't mead a habit of it.

My koi will eat steamed rice, and I'm told as a treat to give small wedges of an orange or minced garlic.
