WEll it has to be cleaned out a lot! it seems to have a leak again and aI dont relish the thought of digging the whole thing up again so I jsut fill it with the hose about once a week and run the pump once a day :)

Your pond looks lovely and neat Pixi25. As for feeding the fish its recommended that you shouldn't feed the fish during the winter because its hard for them to digest it, you should only begin to feed them again when the temperature reaches at least 10deg. Hope this helps.
