Tips on Winter Feeding for Pond Fish
Pond fish can withstand a wide range of temperature, but during the winter as the water gets colder they will become sluggish as their metabolism slows down. It is essential to not overfeed pond fish during these months as the digestion process is much slower than during the warmer months and undigested food can lead to health problems in the digestive tract.

Question: What should you be selling to Pond Keepers to feed their fish during the winter months?

Answer: Tetra Wheatgerm. When water temperature is 5-10 degrees C, pond keepers should be feeding Tetra Wheatgerm Sticks. Wheatgerm sticks are easy to eat and digest, Fibre Rich and support a healthy immune system.
Fish should be once a day, whatever amount they can eat in a few minutes and excess food should be taken out after 30-40 minutes.
When the temperature drops below 5 degrees C, fish should not be fed as they won't eat the food.

Tetra Wheatgerm is available in 3 sizes, 200g/780g/1400g.
