Default Honey for koi ?

Hey Theo!

Honey is fine for them; if you can find bee pollen, that's good, too. The
(extremely!) high-end Japanese import foods have honey and bee pollen in
them.

Another thing you could try: koi *love* garlic!!! When I mix up paste food
for them, I always add garlic powder, and they eat it right up. Also, if
yours hand-feed, try rubbing some garlic on your fingers and see what
happens!

Just read about feeding bread (non bleached), soaked in honey, to koi, and
wondered what the jury here would say about it ?

Anyone doing this or is it a big no-no ?
