Sturgeons are very special fish: the shape of their body already reveals their way of life: they swim at the bottom of the water and by probing the ground with their barbels (chemical sensor organ), they look for small invertebrates whose they feed in the wild. The composition of the JBL ProPond Sterlet product and its way of sinking into the water have been adapted to these feeding habits (higher proportion of invertebrates). Although sturgeons learn to eat at the surface of the water, this mode of feeding contradicts their natural behavior and exposes them to the risk of swallowing too much air.

Sturgeons should always be fed with their own food, since its composition is different. They might also unintentionally injure the lining of the koi with their scutes while fighting over food. In practice, you can feed your goldfish and koi on the surface of the water in one corner of the tank and feed the sturgeons their sinking food in the other corner.
