Koi Feeding Schedule Spring and Summer


Koi Feeding Schedule Spring and Summer
Question:
Now that it is summer time my Koi fish want to eat all the time. How much should do I feed my Koi and how often?

Answer:
First the Koi fish do want to eat all the time; that doesn’t mean Koi need food. When your Koi see you they want to eat, that’s a conditioned response.

Stick to Koi feeding schedule.

  •  Spring –Starts at 50°F - wheat germ food once a day what Koi will eat in 5–10 minutes
  • Summer – Starts at about 60°F Regular high protein food once a day what they will eat in 5–10 minutes.
  •  Koi pond temperature 65-70°F – Feed twice a day what they will eat in 5–10 minutes.
  •  Koi pond temperature over 70°F – You could go to three times a day what they will eat in 5–10 minutes.
  •  Koi pond temperatures over 80°F – Too Hot Do Not Feed look for ways to cool the water. Different kinds of pond chillers are available. I've seen coil based units that hang into the water as well as pumps which circulate the water into the unit then expel cooler water out.
  • Check your local hardware store in the garden section where they keep the lawn and swimming pool equipment or go to swimming pool store that's where you will find pond equipment in Las Vegas Nevada. Further add portable waterfall or fountain immediately why not do both. Remember hotter the pond’s temperature less air in the pond.
  •  Fall – Do the schedule in reverse until 50°F. Then don’t feed; If you feed more than this you will be fouling the water and Over taxing your filter system, by making more ammonia. Don’t forget to do your water changes and ammonia testing on a regular schedule; this will help water quality stay high.
