What you feed 3 week old fry? Can't Post

Recently I acquired some koi fry from a member of AKA. He was very kind and gave me a bag. Parents is a 21year old female Yamabuki Ogon (G/Champ of 1994 AKA show) and father is a Platnium Ogon. Some fry have already got some yellow on them and some are already very shiny. The fry are around 3weeks old now and I cant wait to see them colour up. So far im feeding them bbs, choped finely live blackworms, powdered koi pellets, fry powder foods, powdered algae waffers and sometimes frozen bbs. They seem to be growing up nicely. But what other foods can i feed them? So far they are around 1.5cm.

Regards
Mango :D

A good high protein flake food would be good and you can just give them that, just put it in a blender and get it to a very fine powder and give to them. Just make sure you are keeping the water good and clean for them and you will be ok.

You may consider feed them with egg-yolk, but make sure you boiled the egg before giving it to them, and make sure to control the amount of feeding, not to create water quality problem.

Hatch off some brine shrimp for them, as live foods are very good for them and has natural color enhances in the shrimp.
