What do you want to achieve with that practice? To reduce cost, increase feed consumption or increase weight?

Ttalk:


How often do you sort? What is the size and number of fish in each pond? Do you use aerator or do flow through? What is the average size of the fish?

With the price of fish now,shifting to durante sinking pellet (it cost 350/kg) after two months will still give good result instead of the stress of pelletizing..most of the local ingredients are not even pure again..

funso111:
