Feeding his fish while he has been away.
Apparently 12 medium sized Koi carp do not require 1kg of fish food in one sitting, that as i have just found out is about 100 times too much. It also turned out to be rather more expensive than i thought for the summers supply of grey pellets which i fed the fish in a fortnight.
How was i to know? I figured not knowing the exact amount, giving them too much would be better that too little.
Now i have to help him clean out the filter next week which is full of fish food.

Dont worry you're not alone, I promised to feed my mates fish whilst he was on holiday, forgot monday through friday. Went on Saturday, and thankfully they were all still alive, thought I had better give them an extra large amount so shoved a couple of handfulls of food in the pond.Apparently 12 medium sized Koi carp do not require 1kg of fish food in one sitting, that as i have just found out is about 100 times too much.
