Now that my pond is finally thawed, I am wondering when I start to feed my
fish and what to feed them. I only lost one 8 inch Koi over the winter and
still have about 15 fish. I live just west of Ottawa, Ontario.

Wait till your water is 50F and no sudden down turns in the long range
forecast. Feed low protein food sparsely, let the fish get use to processed
food gradually. Takes awhile for their gut to get back into action, not to
mention your filter to handle the extra waste. ~ jan
