    My main ponds have my koi.
    I will also be doing some micro pond and tub breeding of my barbs this year.

    I've been working patiently, carefully on my 150 gal Tank, all the details; stones, graveled bottom, water hyacinths, potted lake plants, etc. Jeez, I'd like to live here myself! DIY filtration system, too powerful a pump but valve controls the flow rate. I ordered Shubunkin goldfish because of your love for Shubunkin fish and all the videos you have done on them. Your knowledge and superb commentary was the influence on my decision. Would love to send you a photo on my pond, but you have to know that you have your newest subscriber in southern New Mexico.

    @mrtings Před rokem +3

    I’ve learned that secret too. With my koi, I’ll only feed once a day unless the temperature is low then sometimes I’ll feed 1 every 3-4 days. The goal is to keep them alive and healthy and not to grow them over winter. Thanks for sharing your experience!

    • @stubbsaquatics6080
      @stubbsaquatics6080  Před rokem +1

      Thanks Amos. I agree with you 100% regarding a feeding. I don't feed my koi outside all winter long unless you become very active and I've never seen that yet. So even with this mild spell, they're still down at the very bottom. Thanks again for your continued support. Hope you're having a good weekend. Take care of my friend

    They're all so beautiful and fantastic footage, too! Really like that little one that's mostly orange with a black vertical stripe from the tip of the dorsal fin. As you know, I don't have goldfish or koi, but I also only feed my fish once a day with a couple exceptions. Like you, I find it's better for the fish, the health of the tank, and also cuts down on unwanted snails. Great video, Chris! Have an awesome weekend! 🙂👍
