Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Types of fish to choose Feeding Fish Chow (on an irregular schedule)

If you follow the usual caveats on feeding (feed floating food for easy monitoring, don't feed more than 10 lbs/acre or more than the fish eat in 10-15 minutes - those types of thumb-rules), I don't think you can hurt anything. At one feeding per week, it may take a while before the fish figure it all out (feed once a day during a vacation at the farm to get started?). My CC have a pretty good memory and recall right away what the food is for when I start feeding in the Spring (water temp > 60 deg), so I think that once a week would do them some good after they got started. I can't speak for BG eating feed, as mine haven't ever caught on yet.
