Pond Fish Food | Autofeeders

In a new pond, fish will need feeding regularly, but once it is established there is a clear choice to make, continue to feed regularly or decrease feeding to encourage the fish to forage for their own food and grow at the rate pond can support. In the wild, fish manage to find their own food, in a pond, usually higher stocked than a natural environment they will need some supplementary feeding. Generous feeding will encourage the fish to grow and breed,which may result in the pond becoming overstocked, it will certainly necessitate more maintenance. There is no point in bemoaning that the filter is forever needing cleaning but continuing to feed heavily, the waste in the filter comes from somewhere. One handful of food = One handful of waste, it is a simple equation. If the filter needs cleaning too often either get a larger filter or cut down on feeding, it is your pond and it is up to you to adjust the feeding and stocking levels to suit the amount of maintenance you are prepared to do.

There is a huge variety of fish food available, most is suitable for generic fish although some types do have specific needs. Bottom feeding fish will benefit from sinking food, sturgeon and sterlets will need a dedicated food as their metabolism is different from that of other fish and koi if you wish to grow them on, will benefit from high protein food. The key is to vary the food, flake - occasionally, sinking food, dried food, fish pellets, live food, sticks etc. All will be well received, many will contain color enhancers and additives to keep your fish in good conditions.
