Koi and Pond Fish Length to Weight Conversion by Werner 03/08

Please pay close attention to the following tables. You will notice that weight increases do not keep pace with size, i.e. a 10" fish weighs .05 pounds whereas a 30 " fish weighs 15.6 pounds, or more than 30 times as much.

This is especially important when feeding fish for maximum growth rates.
