Abstract

The present invention relates to a quick-sinking fish feed in the form of pellets. It has been found that pellets, the diameter of which is < 4 mm, have difficulty in sinking, especially in the cold time of the year when the density of water is at its maximum. The reason why the feed does not sink is its low intrinsic weight and the too high surface tension. If the fish does not have time to catch the feed, the pellets will be moved by the waves of the sea through the meshes out into the free water. This problem can be solved by loading or coating the fish feed pellets with an oil comprising at least 10% microbial oil.
