As the temp gets colder feedings should be limited to once a day....And as mentioned above, under 50deg, you should not feed your fish.... |

What part of the United states are you in? ponding in Idaho is significantly different than Florida for when fall foods start  Koi Empty chairs at empty tables, the room silent, forlorn. |
