How to hand feed your Pond Fish

How tame are your Pond Fish? Are they eating out of your hand?
It is not as difficult as you might think to train Pond Fish to do just that...

Here are some tips:
- Do not feed the Fish for a day or two to insure they are really hungry
- Present as small a silhouette as possible (squat or kneel instead of standing)
- Take some Pond Fish Food in your hand and make a fist around it
- Hold your fist in the water and let the Fish Food get wet and the flavors leak
- Release one stick/pellet of Pond Fish Food at a time and let it float
- Do not move your hand once the Pond Fish start to investigate

After a few days the Pond Fish will even start to try to get into your fist to get to the Food quicker. Have patience!
