Based on water temp, and approaching weather during spring and fall.
What zone are you in, what is your water temperature now? ~ jan

Hi, I'm in SE London, UK. Water temp tonight at 6pm, was 12deg C/53deg F.
Weather is pleasant, and getting warmer.


When water is between 50-60F, only feed once 2-3 times per week. Imo, watch
weather, if a cold front is coming don't feed that day. 60-70F 2/day,
70-80F 3-6/day (the more times, smaller amounts). Over 85F don't feed as
filter is not working at optimum. ~ jan
