Re: From floating to sinking now!

go to www.koivet.com
soaking the food is what you need to do and squeeze out the air, orandas
need oranda food, not GF food, what happens is there is a lot of air in
other foods, and that is bad for orandas. Oranda food is sinking so they are
also not gulping air from the surface, don't feed floating foods..
