I think I am feeding very little to the koi. I bought 10 kg pack and it last me for two month.

Bro, your 10-20kg a month is a bit too little for your koi...
I'm using 40kg for my 60 pcs.
and my largest is 70+ to 80 only.
Hi Bro PB,

U use 40kg? Thought I am overfeeding at 20kg per month.... But I do not Participate in shows. Will try Sakai if I come across it. Will catch up with u soon. Cheers!

Yes! You are definitely feeding too little as said many times! Pls feed more. Especially to your favorite Kohaku.

Bro...with the 40kg...most of my koi are not very fat.
The 1-2 mths before show, sometimes I reach 50kg!

You can try to feed more, but take care of the filter when you increase the feed. Cheers!
