feeding guidelines
GUIDELINES TO FOOD QUANTITY
1. The amount of food needed to keep your fish healthy is determined by the quantity of fish in the
pond and their size, the season and water temperature of the pond.
In general, the following guidelines should apply:
Winter Time - No Feeding
Late Autumn/Early Spring - One feeding per day
Warmer Periods of Autumn and Spring - Two feedings per day
Summer - Two to four feedings per day
Always feed as much as the fish will eat in 5 minutes, remove left over foods.
The weight of the fish food given is determined by the type of fish food purchased. It is always
advised to purchase a high quality fish food. These foods will give optimum feeding results in
small quantity, stay floating and never cloud the water.
Feeder Amounts:
One feeding equals +/- 15 gr. . The koi Chef can be programmed to dispense as little as 15 gr. (1
feeding, 1x per day) or up to 120 gr. (2 feedings, 4x per day.)
Battery Notes:
Under normal conditions, two C cell batteries will operate the feeder approximately 3 months.
However
if low quality batteries are used or the feeder is exposed to high/low outside
temperatures, the operating time may be shortened.
Battery Installation:
Open the timer and battery cover to install the batteries (not included.) See the symbols + and _
for the correct way of installation of the batteries. Use two C size 1.5 V alkaline batteries (do not
use rechargeable batteries.) If the symbol "LO" appears on the left display, it means the batteies
are almost exhausted. The feeding procedure will still be carried out, but batteries will need to
be replaced in 2 days.
