I've had my 15 X 10 oval pond for over 10 years, with 5 koi and a dozen or so goldfish. My feeding procedure is: shut off the skimmer pump, then spread floating fish food pellets, once a day with enough for them to finish in about 15 minutes. They seem happy and healthy. But I wonder, since most fish food advice is to feed "2-3 times a day, with enough to finish in about 5 minutes" if I should make more of an effort to comply with this. I have to shut off the pump to feed, to avoid the skimmer sucking up the food, and I hate to do this too often. Also, sometimes i'm just not around to do multiple feedings.
Any thoughts on this? thanks!
