So I have a small outdoor pond which I've had for 5 years now. However the pond freezes solid every year so I over winter the goldfish and the plants inside by keeping them in the garage
The goldfish (2 Comets, 2 Shubunkins) are in an old fish tank with a filter and the temperature is a constant 10 degrees (50) unless it's really cold outside where it might dip a bit.
I know your suppose to stop feeding goldfish at 10 (50) degrees in ponds but is it the same for when kept inside? I've heard that if they get hungry while wintering outdoors they always have access to algae and other bits of they want but in an indoor setting they don't. I've kept them like this for 3 years now but every year I seem to loose a few goldfish (feeder fish that I bought in the summer) but 2 of the fish I have now I've had for 3 years. And I never feed them until they get realesed back in April.
Am I doing something wrong.?
