I have 2 goldfish in my garden pond. When should I stop feeding them.I have noticed in the last few weeks that they are slow to take food.

It depends on the pond I'd say. I have a fish in my garden pond that I haven't fed for about 5 years. He's grown to a monsterous size on pond weed and larvae, and it's not a big pond either.

Thanks for that. They have stopped taking the food for now so I think that I hold off on the feeding from today. They seem healthy as well.
