Medicarp is fortified with a natural phytoplankton called Hemathococcus, (not zooplankton) which results in a natural, but superbly enhanced color in your Koi. Medicarp floats, and it maintains its shape in water and will not cloud your pond. Medicarp is famous for it's palatability. Very few foods will cause your fish to so-aggressively swarm the pond surface in search of it!
