    Cheerios and malted shreddies are both breakfast cereals my Koi go mad for as a treat
    Also a whole lettuce gets eaten to the root stem……I usually tie it up at my pond window

      Oranges in half, I believe they will love it! I tried strawberry before as well, that took a while before they started eating it. Cabbage it seems like they don't really enjoy it here. Thanks for sharing!

    While i have not tried cucumber my koi, iridescent sharks and tinfoil barbs love chopped bananas; not cut in coin size pieces like you tried but chopped until almost a mash :)
    They also love chopped apples, water melon and mangos :)

    In the summer we get infested with Japanese beetles. They eat all the plant leaves, especially rose bushes, so we catch them with pheromone traps --where they just drop (unharmed, with no chemicals) into bags.. Then, we dump several hundred of them (still live and moving) into the pond water and the koi LOVE to eat them!

    • @Aboutkoi

    Some owners warned me not to feed kois with bread because it will kill them, so I don't, even if I make my own bread every day. They said their kois died because the bread grew in size in their stomach.

    • @Aboutkoi
      @Aboutkoi  3 роки тому +1

      Some of these foods contain high protein and high amounts of fat. They higher the water temperature, the beter the metabolism of a Koi is, hence it becomes easier for them to break down these types of food
