Feeding

Regularly monitor your pond’s water temperature and adjust feeding frequency and portions accordingly. Avoid overfeeding, and always remove any uneaten food after feeding to keep your pond healthy.

  • 18-30°C: Feed 2-4 times daily, offering only what your fish will finish within 5 minutes.
  • 11-18°C: Feed no more than twice daily, with the same 5-minute consumption guideline. For best results, feed during the warmer part of the day.
  • Below 11°C: Feeding should be minimal to none, koi become largely inactive and struggle to digest food properly at these temperatures.
