Quick Reference for
feeding pond fish
Depending on the water temperature, pond fish have
different nutritional requirements and feeding habits. At water
temperatures of 10°C (50°F) or above, fish feed up to four times
daily, but only as much as they can consume in two minutes.
It is better to feed in small portions where
everything is eaten, resulting in less waste and pollution. In
winter, when the water temperature drops below 6°C (42°F), pond
fish require no food. At below freezing temperatures fish are
dormant.
Never overfeed your fish. Excess food will pollute the pond water.
Remember, Laguna foods are highly nutritional, easy to digest and
contain an ideal combination of vitamins and minerals. As a
result, fish do not require as much food and less waste is
produced.
