koi fish feeding

Koi fish are omnivorous. They consume a wide range of foods, such as watermelon, lettuce, and peas. In addition to being balanced nutritionally, koi fish food is also made to float, which encourages the fish to come to the surface. Koi can be examined for ulcers and parasites while they are eating. Koi fish are naturally bottom feeders, and they have altered their jaw structure to do so. Because some koi fish like to feed largely from the bottom, food manufacturers mix foods that sink and float. Koi fish congregate near the people who are feeding them because they are familiar faces. They are teachable to accept food from the hand. They eat less during the winter because their digestive processes almost come to a complete standstill.
