That’s great that you really care and provide for the fish. I find that no matter what pets you keep it’s always better to provide a varied diet for optimum health. Great job!
Thanks for putting this vid up Adam, another really interesting subject. It's the first time I've seen your fish so close up - they look in fantastic shape and clearly love those treats. The comment about them only getting prawns at Christmas when you get prawns made me laugh :-) Regards, M

Great video! My koi really love chopped up mussels too. I also have a small pond full of duckweed that I scoop out once a day for the koi. Duckweed is loaded with A&B vitamins and is a great source of fiber. ❤ Great video!🥰
haha for a moment I thought that window was the tank. I was like holy man that's a tiny tank for those big fish, then it panned back a bit and I seen it was quite and large pond lol.
you truly have amazing set up bud. Your filtration system must be out this world for the amount of food your feeding and the size of your koi. Amazing pond love the window well done. Cheers for the tips i'm doing koi fry right now Kohaku and Sanke mix. I need to make a youtube channel for that.
Great Koi food ideas.In NYC we have a number of Chinatowns and one can get dried baby salt water shrimp at a low price,great for koi though I rinse them because they are often salted heavily.I'm surprised you didn't include earthworms.Koi and most other fish love them and there not hard to find or cultivate.I did not feed my koi the amount of fruit and vegetables that you do and I think this was a mistake.Have you tried Mullberries and other fruits as well?Wild Carp love a variety of fruits like oranges,cantelope,strawberries and raspberries to name a few.I have fed squid which is cheap and contains 50%protein when it fresh and moist to many fish but never koi.Do you have any experience with squid as food for koi?Any info would be appreciated.I enjoyed your presentation a lot.
I give my fish much more pallets. Flakes for the goldfish.. I see some eat all the food of others in your pond..that big orange one haha . Mine like tialpa, worms and chicken weirdly enough. The worms i buy from the biofarm they are for composting your soil veggiegardens and i breed them..so they truly waiting for these worms..bloodworms makes them fiesty.. Good idea those oranges..i give marigold flowers since a week i had that from the Gregg the pondguy..aquaponics owner . that brightens their colour too and keeps parasites away.. Thanks for sharing...
You should throw the food in different areas so the smaller fish that hang around the outside get a chance to get some! If you always throw in the middle only the strongest fish are getting fed, I imagine.. :)
Koi are bottom feeders, it's why they have the barbels, they're used to sucking from the floor. If it rots on the floor it's because they don't want to eat it.
I watched this video a few months ago and tried oranges and cabbage, they didn't touch them. Then I tried a can of baby shrimp and they loved it. Now I feed them canned shrimp, clams, or oysters every day and they devour them.
It was interesting - beautiful fish too. Our fish have had a rough time recently in pond due to infection. Things are getting better so will diversify their food a bit more and treat them to something tastier than pond sticks this season.
Your koi are so beautiful. I have three in a pond and am new to this but they’re growing so so fast that I’m already going thinking of having a bigger pond. Also I have live wax worms for a couple of geckos I have and thought they might make a nice treat but you said not to give live food due to bugs etc - these wax worms are indigenous to the UK and bred in captive clean conditions so I’m wondering if I can give them as an occasional treat. Also I meant to add - thanks so much for sharing your expertise and the treats these gorgeous fish can have. One of mine takes food from anyone, a smaller one does now too so I’m just trying to tempt koi number three and actually have mussels in the freezer for a puffer fish. Looks like they’ll be getting some mussels tomorrow now. 😉
Do you do anything to the mussels or prawns before feeding them to the fish ? or buy frozen, defrost, and feed ? great video ! i want to give my babies a more varied diet as well
I just wanted to say thank you for your videos I really love your fish. I have gold fish my self and I love my fish very much thay are my friends there names are cooke and Cooke's.thank you again for making these videos for us my friend.😎
Really nice. I just came on here searching for Koi because i thought i caught two at a lake out fishing today but it seems what i caught were hybrids. Think they were hybrids of Crucian Carp/Koi and another had the body of a Crucian but the colour of a Common Carp and its fins were long and flappy like those you get with goldfish like Shubunkins. I fished a small lake one acre in size and its well stocked with a variety of species (no predators though) and i knew they had Crucians, Mirrors and Commons as well as Golden Orfe, Tench and silvers but it seems they must have Koi too and they're breeding with the Carp. Your tank is fantastic and lovely fish there. Its interesting especially from an anglers perspective how those fish react to the food you give them.
glad ive came across this video i will be trying mine on muscles now. mine are not even close to the size of these but i hope they will eat the muscles want them to hand feed.
You can cut your orange in half and thread a cable tie through the middle and hang it over the edge into the pond. This gets the fish up to the top and saves having to get the net in for the peel
Amazing pond!! How many fish do you have in there? And for someone wanting to start keeping koi, do you recommend starting from babies or something older?
+Mil Bat Hi, There are about 50 fish in that tank. and i would recommend Japanese Koi about 2" - 4" something cheep because it is the best way to learn and satisfying to watch them grow.
Adam Julyan Man, your koi's head is small with the huge body, you didn't feed them enough calcium for them to grow bigger head, these smaller head type is degraded in competition. and the worms are not koi's food, it's more like bird food, you do need to feed them with shrimp much much more! So they can grow their bone.
wow I just love the colors you have there that's AWESOME, what's the BIGGEST one you have in there & the type of koi & do you ever have to change the filter & water out?
It's easy go to home Depot and buy a 30 gallon if your in an apartment leave on balcony in the summer bring in for the winter...remember to save water. ..I have a 60 gallon and a 30 gallon lots of koi and fancy goldfish..
Have u tried those multi packs of frozen bloodworm, daphnia etc? They'd go straight down, but are convenient and healthy. Easy to store in the freezer. Or frozen peas? You are a great example to koi keepers. Those fish couldnt look better!
Many koi keepers don’t like introducing anything but their standard koi food because of possible bacteria contamination. Do you ever worry or ever had an issue?
I do worry about that just not with cooked food. But i do give them cabbage and stuff like that which was grown in a field and probably sprayed with water from a local river so could carry all sorts and i have microscope a cabbage before and found some interesting things so before i put one in i will microwave it so its really hot and hopefully kills any unwanted things.
I’m absolutely AMAZED at them picking the cabbage and oranges clean!
That’s great that you really care and provide for the fish. I find that no matter what pets you keep it’s always better to provide a varied diet for optimum health. Great job!
I love how you have a really large pond for your fish. they are beautiful. You are very kind to them :)
beautiful but there gonna get way bigger and then the pond will be tooo small.... problem with koi.... big buggers.
Margaret Jay agreed
The pond is big enough. He just have too much koi which is a mistake. 4 would’ve been more than enough.
@@rounman5583 actually for a pond of thi size, 4 is way too little. He has a good amt of fish for a pond of that size
@@fuzzbuzztk actually, they wont get much bigger than they already are. The bigger ones in here are about full grown for their species
I had no clue I had so many option for treats and food for me fish. Thanks!
Thanks for putting this vid up Adam, another really interesting subject. It's the first time I've seen your fish so close up - they look in fantastic shape and clearly love those treats. The comment about them only getting prawns at Christmas when you get prawns made me laugh :-) Regards, M
wow beautiful! i didnt realize there were so many options for treats for koi!
One of the most informative video I’ve seen on foods for koi. Thanks so much.
lol, after all of the normal fish food snacks.. they go nuts for the cheerios...
the orange one stareing at you like FEED ME lol

Fantastic tank and beautiful fish. Thanks
You have beautiful fish, the tank is simply amazing! Good job!!!
beautiful setup man and beautiful koi fish I could watch them for hours...
Wow that's your pond !! Wow beautiful
Love videos like this mate keep updating us on new a different treats we can feed very interesting 👍
Pond looks sick 👍 watch you’re video on the outdoor swimming pool koi pond last night and was very impressed..
This is an amazing pool setup with fish display.
haha for a moment I thought that window was the tank. I was like holy man that's a tiny tank for those big fish, then it panned back a bit and I seen it was quite and large pond lol.
and cheerios are totally good for fish. you can raise tadpoles on cheerios I used to do it when I was a kid. cheerios got natural ingredients.
Me too
Name Unavailable. Tadpoles aren't fish
Name Unavailable. Yeah same XD lmao 😂

You have an amazing set up. I can only dream of such a set up. I do have a 2 000 litre above ground pool in the shed.
Mine love boiled rice, they're Japanese so I suppose they would.
I like turtles
I like fish
Yh that’s quite a good food
Useless food rice
Fish, they are like naturals in the water
I love your tank, I love your fish, and wow are they well fed! Loved the video! :)

Brittney Mathews no your wrong koi fish are friendly they dont fight
Atong Balats . she never said they fight. the biggest and fastest get the food first.. it's just how they are.
I'm sure this is just for the video. Not like he's going to throw it in the back so we can't see it.
@@KochavShavit-bu7uo what all he says is Daphne
Good video I am a fisherman and I agree muscles are a top bait!
Awesome fish man, looks like they got a great life.
Thanks Adam definitely going to try , also try the Cheerios. I have been giving my few koi whiskas kitten biscuits as a treat, they love them
Amazing video, gorgeous fish, we had a goldfish who lived for 18 years, although he went silver .
Like a silverfish. haha
beautiful tank, beautiful fish.
I love your kois. Your chagois are my favs!
Thank you very much, I really enjoy the videos.
Thank you!! I had no idea that the Koi could snack on so many goodies!!!
Just found your video fabulous to watch , thank you for info , I will try with my koi tomorrow morning x
I had 10 kois in a large pond as a kid, I always cried since i got scared everytime the koi bites my hand.
Wow your tank is amazing mate...
That's not a tank mate. It's a fucking swimming pool
Your Father LOLOLOLOL
Your Father LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
shut the FUCK UP YOU idiot
I thought that ALL THOSE KOI WERE ONLY IN HTE LITTLE WINDOW omg I was scared lol did not see the pond! beautiful fish great pond!
Very helpful vid, the variety of treats you use is pretty impressive - love your setup - thx
I don't like sinking food. Some will go to the bottom drain and rot. But good job man. Your kois are spoiled.
PicoLatrinidad stfu!!!
How about you 'stfu' he has said something fine so you fuck off back to cooking rice
Koi are bottom feeders, it's why they have the barbels, they're used to sucking from the floor. If it rots on the floor it's because they don't want to eat it.
He has a drum filter so any waste that goes in, never actually reaches the state of turning toxic, because it gets removed first.
Not even stones sit on the bottom with a 4 inch bottom drain and he has two, mine swallows large frogs
Wow you have such a big koi pond 😍😍😍
Amazing, I love it!
All videos are so inspirational and my fish love oranges
Fantastic Information can’t wait to see what they like
so beautiful koi and pond tank there cheers :D "D
I watched this video a few months ago and tried oranges and cabbage, they didn't touch them. Then I tried a can of baby shrimp and they loved it. Now I feed them canned shrimp, clams, or oysters every day and they devour them.
In the summer I normally feed mine boiled deshelled garden peas which they go absolutely crazy for.
It was interesting - beautiful fish too. Our fish have had a rough time recently in pond due to infection. Things are getting better so will diversify their food a bit more and treat them to something tastier than pond sticks this season.
beatiful koi's and great set up got a long way until my set up is complete but fully custom :)
Thanks! Awesome video. I will definitely add these foods for my koi.
What a cool set up

Do you do anything to the mussels or prawns before feeding them to the fish ? or buy frozen, defrost, and feed ? great video ! i want to give my babies a more varied diet as well
That pond is amazing especially from the side view :D how do u clean it out?

Have you ever tried training some of your Koi to do tricks?
They already look like they learned a few things.
WhiteWolfos awe
WhiteWolfos
If they do tricks they will probably jump out of there
Beautiful Koi’s, thanks for sharing, glad to know what they like and don’t . Is pearl barley for small Koi’s as well , do they not have a husk?
You can cut your orange in half and thread a cable tie through the middle and hang it over the edge into the pond. This gets the fish up to the top and saves having to get the net in for the peel
you kept all of them. must be a Big lover
this wonderful video helped me get through a day or two. charming.
You sound like you're from 'up north' mate! Great looking fish!
Irish?
@@skynet251 No, northern England
cheezus you can go SWIMMING with em :) although nice pond m8 very nice
Is it because there is no sunlight that cause the fish to be orange in color?
Your fish are outstanding ! Beautiful set up
Thanks
Good, thank you for sharing your feeding experience and time with us.👍

Can you show what filtration systems you use? The water is very clean and clear.
wow I just love the colors you have there that's AWESOME, what's the BIGGEST one you have in there & the type of koi & do you ever have to change the filter & water out?
Wow they have a beautiful diet I love it
Do you have a source for bulk dried shrimp, black flies, and meal worms?

Do you ever swim in that pond?

Can’t wait for summer mate
That's awesome , my dream to have same this pound
It's easy go to home Depot and buy a 30 gallon if your in an apartment leave on balcony in the summer bring in for the winter...remember to save water. ..I have a 60 gallon and a 30 gallon lots of koi and fancy goldfish..
any problems with seeds from Oranges getting stuck in the fish?
Not that i have seen. I have seen fish pick the seed out and drop it but no issues with them. all the seeds usually end up in the filter.
