Could Koi die from starvation if not fed for 4 or 5 days?

Thanks Phil

No, they just *act* like they will. They go all winter without food . . . If
you have a coat of algae on the pond walls and rocks, they'll munch on that
and will do just fine.

I don't know for sure, but I would say no. They eat the alage on the sides.

More fish die from overfeeding than from underfeeding. My aquarium fish
fast one day a week. This helps with nitrogen management and purges them a
bit. I left them for a week without food and they were fine.

I agree with John Hines who posted. Sometimes they act like they are
starving
