Default Keep Things Simple!!!

I wonder if there are some other folk in the ng who can get other opinions
from their wildlife folk. It would be interesting to hear.

Meanwhile, however, catfish food will dominiate our pond menu. Followed by
algae.

Hi, Good to hear from other "Keep It Simple Folks"!!! I was thinking
about the Fat content in the Catfish Chow when I wrote my first post. I
asked the biologist at the Missouri Botanical Gardens about this...he
said...BULL!! LOL He should know..they have the largest..healthiest
and HUGEST population of KOI in their KOI "Lake" in their several acre
Japanese Gardens...Like I said they use a brand called "Krazy Kat"I use
Rural Kings brand... Every seen 3 foot long+ Koi clammer over themselves
to get food...a site to behold...Remember...KEEP THINGS SIMPLE!! {:O)

Hi Mike,

We are also catfish-food-koi-feeders. I understand from ng folk that

know
nutrition that it is not great for the koi fat levels.

Grab your pig's feet, bread, and gin,
there's plenty in the kitchen.
I wonder what the poor people are eating
tonight?

I take the advice from people who breed and raise koi for a living. INgrid

Keep things simple sure. But not everyone is as knowledgeable about what to
watch for, or can run on common sense. Some would call you lucky. I would
say, you have good fish raising instinct and good water. ;o)

The rest, if it don't work, fill out a sick fish/pond form, and we'll help
you out. ~ jan
