Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Feeding Calculate annual amount of feed for 9 acres?

David:

That will be hard to durn near impossible to give you an concrete fighre. There is so much that falls under the catagory of "it depends". It depends on how much the fish will eat, water temp, etc., etc. Feed only the amount of food that they will consume in 10-15 minutes. You can feed 1x or 2x per day. Stop feeding when water temp drops below 60 degrees. The fish will eat the best when the water temp is between the high 60's and the high 70's. They will slow down in warmer water.

What feeders do you plan on using? I don't know of any feeder on the market that will throw both smaller quantities of 1/8" to 1/4" sized food and also throw the largemouth feed.
