Both my Koi and Gold Fish love them.. Doesnt take long for only the orange peel to be left. Pretty fun to watch... |

Janna Mega Fish Posts: 1386 Registered: 24-Aug-2003 | Yes, it will make the water more acidic, since there is a lot of citric acid in oranges . A nice treat, but it really can't be fed too much or the pH and such will drop too low. They wear masks of silk, porcelain, brass, and silver, So as not to mislead with their own, ordinary faces. |
