In fact it is even dangerous to feed your fishes during the cold period! They wake up then and start swimming around, and the danger is that they freeze fast onto the ice that covers your pond. The pond does get an ice layer, so it is better to keep at least one opening in the ice; we have a thing that brings lots of oxygen into the pond, and this keeps the opening where the bubbles come upwards
I hope I make myself clear?....
