ademola1333: It's still available DualAir ® Solar Pond Oxygenator Oxygenates Water for larger ponds Ideals for fish ponds over 6 feet long(copied from the producer's site) It doesn't have a battery back up so it doesn't work when there is no sun.However, they have the ones with battery back up Check them out on powerbee dot co dot uk But is it necessary it runs 24/7 ? Still need a bigger one? I saw some on livingwateraeration dot com solardirect dot com They both have for ponds in acres. 1 Like |

Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Emmafly(m): 1:37pm On Jul 17, 2017 |
akpobo2k: pond is too overcrowded and small for 640 fish at 3 months. share them into two cos they need space. meanwhile don't overfeed or feed only once a day. but now don't feed for atleast 2 days or until they stop dropping but max 5 days. get at least 5 pawpaw leaves squeeze And pour the leaves into their water. do this weekly. they will eat the leaves as antibiotic . 1 Like 1 Share |

Fish farming is very lucrative and interesting. However, for one to succeed, he needs to take some things seriously into consideration: Things to Consider in Starting Fish Farming Business 1. Fish farming business plan 2. Good Knowledge of fish farming 3. Your market analysis 4. Land size intended for use 5. Where the fish farm will be located 6. Pond planning, type, design, size, and construction 7. Cost and source of water 8. Fish feed, medication and supplements 9. Storage system 10. Viability of fish farming business in your location 11. Knowledge and preparation for risks Things to Consider in Starting Fish Farming Business A. Fish farming business plan If you are really serious about setting up a catfish farm, then you should invest in writing a business plan. This is very important as it helps you prepare and execute your growth strategies properly. Secondly, you need a business plan for your fish farm if you intend to raise capital, or secure a loan from the bank for your fish farm. Lastly, you will need a business plan to access the various funds and support line established by the government and other institution. So start writing your business plan today. You can seek the services of an agriculture business consultant if you need help computing the financial estimates and projections. B. Good Knowledge of fish farming To start your own in the aquaculture fish industry, you must first learn all about fish farming. Learning about fish farms will prepare you to make educated decisions. Visit some of the fish farms in your area or meet with people just like you who have entered the fish industry. The internet is vast source of knowledge. You could find all about aquaculture and fish farming from websites on the internet. Consider signing up for classes visit webinars and such, if you can, to gather more information about the business. Every business has its own challenge, and you should do whatever it takes to gain firsthand knowledge about the business. Taking a part time job at a local fishery might also give you hands on experience. C. Your market analysis . Who are your buyers? What are their needs? What are the things they crave for? What’s your market demand? What are the things that keep them awake at night? It is your duty to identify and answer these questions. You need this information to make it BIG! If you can provide solution to them, you won’t have any problem. You must tailor your production to meet your market requirements. These above factors must be written down and followed strictly in order to attain success in fish farming. The rest will be mentioned in a later thread. 2 Likes |

OnuohaClever: Hi Is there any danger in using a concrete tank straightaway for fingerlings? |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by vinotinto5: 5:02pm On Jul 18, 2017 |
There is no danger to use concrete tank for fingerlins. However make sure you clean with potassium progamate before stocking. And if it is a new pond, use cow dung to soak it for some days before clean up and usage. 1 Like |
