Another Food One ???????

Post by Gazza »

Hi Guys,

Can we feed a koi to much is the question :?:

By this i do not mean feeding to much will cause water problems i am on about a good system well looked after and spot on water and heating ect so can we feed the fish to much that it can cause a problem like making it fat or overweight in some way of health problems. If this is the case is it the food that is the food that is the problem with to much protein or some additive that makes it a problem for the fish in some way :?:

Look forward to hearing your views guys :D

Hi Gazza.....I'm prepaired to be shot, not for the first time :D I personally notice the difference in the type of waste that ends up in the filter..What I mean is ,it's hard to put into words but you can get out a pooh consisting of a row of pelets which obviously have been through a fish, or you can get the stuff that is easy to shift off the bottom of the pond with a quick blast of air.
Thats got to be a waste of mony if nothing else...Mike
