admittedly, the water is cold, but most northerners have goldfish that arent fed for
6 months or so. it is much better to not feed fish when the owner is on vacation
than having somebody come in to feed them. Ingrid

Very interesting read as I recently thought about putting a few more
fish in my small(ish) pond (1000 litres) but after advice from my local
fish shop, they told me it's not the best idea. My nitrates were up and
asked how many times I fed the fish.
At the time I did this 3 times a day (although small amounts) and they
suggested making it once a day. I've done this but have to admit that
I've been away on an emergency holiday for 3 days and nobody has fed
them. I guessed that there is enough stuff in the pond to keep them
going for a couple of days?
cheers
