Families should feed koi twice a day in spring and summer, once in the morning and once in the evening, and only once a day in autumn and winter. Because koi fish are less active in autumn and winter, their metabolism slows down, and they may be overfed. In spring and summer, the amount of each feeding is enough for koi to be eaten within 5 minutes, and there is no residue in the tank. In autumn and winter, make sure they can be eaten within 10 minutes at a time.
How many days is it good to feed koi once? How much is appropriate to feed once?

Generally speaking, the feeding frequency of family-fed koi can be determined according to the season. In spring and summer, when the weather is warm, the activity of Koi is large, the metabolism is fast, and the energy needed is also large, usually fed twice a day. Feeding time can be 6-7 am and 3-4 pm. Winter is cold, and Koi fish swim less, so they can be fed once a day. It's best to feed them at 2 p.m. Because around 2 o'clock is the warmest, the appetite of Koi is relatively high. Note, do not feed too much food at a time, the amount of food so that they can eat in about five minutes, and there is no residue in the fish tank is the best.

2. How much is appropriate to

feed Koi at a time? Big Koi and small Koi eat at different speeds. The feeding speed of small koi is relatively fast, and the feeding can be finished within 3-5 minutes. The big koi eats slowly, and the amount that can be eaten in about 5 minutes is the most appropriate. If there is no food residue left in the fish tank, the koi can eat about 80% full each time. If there is residual food in the fish tank, it should be filtered out in time to keep the water clean. Next time, the amount of feeding can be reduced, and you can grasp the amount of feeding by trying several times.
