Use only a floating food. Put only a little bit of food in until the pond
pigs start acting like pigs and going for it before it hits the water. If
you put your hand in the water near the food, they will learn to eat from
your hand. If they are finding plenty of insects, snails, and other
critters in the pond, they really don't need or want the store bought stuff,
and it is hard to get them up in that case.

Is there any way to get teh fish to come to the surface while feeding
them? The thing is I'm not sure if he's eating the food since I've only
seen him one time while I was feeding him.
