You should feed them twice daily but only as much as they will eat in 15 minutes. Any left over/uneaten food should be syphoned out of the tank immediately after feeding to prevent it from going bad in the water and poisoning the fish.

You should only feed your goldfish as much as it takes them to eat in 2 minutes and nothing more.
Goldfish are very good at pretending to be hungry all the time, but they are not; it's very easy to over feed a goldfish, so be mindful of the amount of food you give them.

Remember, Goldfish are always hungryTwice Daily. Goldfish should be fed as much as they can eat in 15 minutes in the morning and again in the evening. The basic rules of fish keeping should also apply. 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water. :- Every tank needs a permanently running cycled filter. :- Every tank needs at least 50% of its water changed every week. If you keep to the above rules, feed the fish properly with good food it/they will stand a chance of living a normal lifespan. If you fail in any of them I can guarantee that your fish will be constantly getting sick and will have a very short lifespan.

Is koi fish food and goldfish food the same?

Not neccessarilly all feeder fish are goldfish. Feeder fish are usually those fairly small fish that are regarded as being not suitable for sale as specimens for some reason. They often are poorly coloured or deformed livebearers and other species too. Yes, I agree with the answer above. I am sad to see the feeder goldfish they sell in such terrible conditions! My fancy goldfish were almost 10 dollars each, and the feeder goldfish were 75 cents!
