  TJB-INC Tips:

  • When the pond water falls below 55 degrees, stop feeding your fish.  They will still beg to eat but their internal systems can not break down the food as well when the water is cold and you can do harm to them by giving in to temptation and feeding them.  For more information on this topic and more, purchase Koi Health and Disease by Dr. Eric Johnson DVM
  • The benificial bacteria (AquaClearer Extreme)that was keeping your pond water clear does not work below 60 degree water temperature.  You will have to switch to AquaClearer Extreme Cold Water to break down sludge an de-nitrify the water until the water temperature get to 40 degrees.  Below that, everything is dormant.
