Koi keeping in Canada is cold work. I finally can see my fish as the ice and snow has melted back off the pond. All accounted for thankfully, its been a bad winter and I know folks who are not as lucky as I.

hi koimann,

It's really interesting to follow your showa's development progress. I was stunned by the body conformation.
- How do u maintain such a good body conformation?
- what kind of koi food do u feed her?maybe u can tell me the brand as well
- at last, what 's the recipe?how's the feeding regimen?

I hope you dont mind sharing with us here in term of improving our koi keeping skills.thanks so much

Best regards,

Brandon

Hello Brandon,
I do not have any special feeding for my kois.I have been feeding them Sakai Wheat Germ and Colour for the past 5 months.I feed them 2 weeks Colour,then 4 weeks Wheat Germ and then back again.I feed my kois 5 times a day and 6days a week.

Hi koimann,

thanks a lot for the precious piece of information.I feed my koi whit saki hikari growth and nozomi wheat germ but It's quite hard to achieve a body conformation like your koi.
I believe the food brand play a role in this matter.


best regards,

brandon
