Frequently Asked Questions
Q: When should I use Cold Weather food?
A: Switch to Cold Weather formula when water temperatures drop below 65°F in fall and continue until temperatures rise above 65°F in spring. The wheat germ base is easier to digest in cool water.
Q: How often should I feed Legacy Cold Weather?
A: Feed once daily when water temperatures are 50-65°F, only what fish can consume in 5 minutes. Stop feeding when temperatures drop below 50°F as fish metabolism becomes too slow to digest food.
Q: Why is wheat germ better for cold weather?
A: Wheat germ is highly digestible and requires less energy to process, making it ideal for fish with slowed metabolism in cool water. It provides essential nutrients without taxing their digestive systems.
Q: Can I feed this in summer?
A: Cold Weather formula is designed for cool temperatures. In summer, switch to Summer Staple or Growth & Energy formulas that provide higher protein for active fish metabolism.
Q: How should I store the food?
A: Store in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight. Reseal the container after each use to maintain freshness and nutritional value throughout the cold weather season.
