Hi all what do you feed your Koi to make them grow fast , at this present time I just feed them the Koi pellets ,
what to feed Koi

Why do you want them to grow fast? Just curious!
I have 12 large koi that I have had for 10 years . They are mostly Butterfly and are all 20" +. I feed them koi pellet food in the morning, Honey Nut cherrios at noon and romaine lettuce in the evening. They will probably grow a little bigger but they love to eat. They eat 3 times a day but smaller amounts. Be patient , they will get big. Good Luck.

They do make koi foods for growth but unless you have a lot of extra room, don't recommend it. I used to feed growth color food 4-5 times a day. Ended up with 20+" koi in 1 year and some 30" and larger fish. Hard on filtration!
