Hi All
I know this may be discussed in different threads but I would like to get some suggestions specific to my case.
I have around 6 Kois now. They are around 12cm long on an average.
1. Because both me and my wife are not at our house from 10 AM to 8PM because of our work schedule, I feed them only 2 times a day. Morning 9:30 AM and night 10:00PM. I give them small pellets, a handful may be some 30 gms for these 6 Kois. Is this timing fine ? Do I need to buy an automatic feeder for the third time in a day ? Currently all of them look healthy and fine, I have seen them sometimes eating algae on the pond walls.
2. Is fasting a day in a week good for Kois or any other fishes ? I heard so from my friends, that would make their stomach more healthier. Is it true ?
3. What are the vegetables and fruits other than the ready made pellets that we can safely give to the Kois ?
4. I have mollies (which I got a stest fishes for the pond) as well in the pond. I give them micro pellets designed for guppies and mollies. Sometimes Kois also eat it. Is there a problem with that ?
5. Is there anything that I should take care while feeding my Kois. In general I am new to fish keeping hobby.
Just sharing a video of my Kois for your reference:
Thanks in advance.
