Young Nishikigoi (Fry) do not only need vitamins to stay healthy, but also for the growth and the healing ability of the body. Further more vitamins are of great importance for the production of enzymes. Enzymes play a part in the metabolism of the body. Without enzymes there is no metabolism and food can not be digested and diverted to energy.
Should you breed your Fry (f.e. in a quarantine facility) it is wise to add extra vitamine C. Adult Nishikigoi obtain enough vitamine C from their daily feed and if necessary they can transfer glucose to vitamins. A supplement is therefore unnecessary.
There are two kinds of vitamins: watersoluble and acidsoluble vitamins. Acissoluble vitamins are mainly obtained from fat foods an can be stored in the bodycells. Watersoluble vitamins, that are mainly in the moist of foods can not be stored and therefore need to be replenished daily. Vitamine C is a watersoluble vitamin.
