Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Feeding Feed question/advise

Your fish will probably slow down and stop feeding as the water temp drops from 60 to 50 deg F. You should reduce the amount you are feeding when this happens and then stop at maybe 50 degrees. Stoppiong earlier is OK, too. Remember fish metabolism slows way down when it cools off (for LMB, a 50% drop for every 8 degree cooler), so they will need MUCH less to eat in the Winter.
