1, the right bait: to feed the koi, first of all, they need to choose the right food. Koi are omnivorous fish, they can eat a wide variety of food. Animals such as tubificidae and red worms, plants such as vegetables, bean sprouts, etc., and some fish feed purchased from the market, etc., are all possible. Specifically, the best way to feed Koi is to combine a variety of foods, so that nutrition will be rich and comprehensive, so that plant feed accounts for 60%, animal feed accounts for 40%.
2. Reason: To feed Koi, you need to follow certain principles. The first is "timing", that is, feeding koi at a fixed time every day. The second is "positioning", that is, when feeding, you need to choose a fixed place. In this way, after the time, the koi can be concentrated in a fixed position, so that the feeding effect is better.
3. Eight-percent full: Generally speaking, it is better to keep them in an eight-percent full state every time they are fed. Specifically, we can take their feeding time as a reference. If it is a small fish, let them eat in 5 minutes; For larger fish, it is better to let them eat within 30 minutes. However, we also need to adjust according to the season. Summer when the temperature is high, then the appetite of Koi will be more exuberant, you can feed a little more; If the temperature is relatively low in winter, it will also affect the appetite of Koi, so you can feed less.
4. Specific time: You can choose two feeding time points every day, one is around 10:00 in the morning, and the other is around 3:00 in the afternoon.
Generally speaking, you can feed once or twice a day, do not feed for a long time. However, in winter, if the temperature is relatively low, resulting in a relatively low appetite of Koi, you can also feed once every other day.
