Hi Guys!
Two weeks ago today, I dropped in 200 one pound wipers in my 7 acre pond. Two days later I had my feeder set up with aquamax 600 (42%). I have not had a chance to view feeding time until Monday night. It seemed that some of the fish found the feed but took about 20 minutes before they finished up. The feeder was set on 4 seconds for the morning and evening feed times. Last night I refilled the feeder with a mix of Game fish chow (32%) and Aquamax 600. I did a test run for 4 seconds about 2 hours before the regular feed time. My concern is, it took about 5 minutes for the fish to find the food. when they found it, feeding went on sporadically for an hour. I set the times for 3 seconds rather than 4. I'm wondering if I'm putting too much chow in the water, or if it was not the correct feed time that threw them off........ or could it be new fish that have not been previously pellet trained finding the attractant in the game chow? Any thoughts???
