Regular water changes with the Koi sticks should work great.

Yes regular water changes is the key. Even if you can do it as often as once a day it is best, but once a week should suffice. Just remember........no pain no gain.

I try not to buy food in bulk...while it is cheaper, just like any other food that is left out it starts to be leeched of mineral content.
Smaller bathes that remain fresh and can be used out within a month tend to be better for the fish...
