wahleymanutd:Thanks for the compliment. This year makes it the 5th year I have been active in fish farming business. I started with just a pond of 2000 fishes and by the grace of God, you can see where I am today in pond and fish numbers. I have had challenges and infact, I lost money in my first year. I repackaged myself, learnt where I failed and I went for practical training from successful farmers. This is what most farmers in the business fail to realise. There is so much to learn about successful catfish breeding than the vague believe that is been paraded online. Yes we offer practical training on hatching. Send me mail and I will give you details. I will attach some of section of our hatchery now. |

these fishes are going on Wednesday. average size is 2.5kg at 24 weeks old. they are product from our hatchery. you are so certain of your adult fishes when you know the source of the seeds. our fishes are envy of competitors because we do not sell our fingerlings, except of very 'special' occasion . or if i tell you to come buy fingerling for 35 naira wont you run? lol see how the pond looks so natural and colorful like a natural river

@ Jam04, kudos for ur time, and congrats @ ur work, plz i need ur advice, i have flair for fish farming, my challenge is that the compound is not secured, i have one small concrete tank, formally used for water storage, but i want to try out with 50 juveniles or lesser, there is also water supply in place, what size of feed and product is good. I need general advice on how to start. NB: am not rushing for profits yet but to learn the rudimentary. |
Re: Cat Fish Enthusiastic Farmers/lovers Come In Here And Lets Discuss. by jam04(m): 9:12am On Mar 05, 2015 |
excess4luv:The size of feed depends on the age of your seeds, could be juvenile or fingerlings. Since this is just a test case, start with fingerlings. Difficult to manage but with time you will perfect it. Start with 0.5mm coppens for the first week and if good progress is observed move to 0.7mm in the 2nd week. I finish off with durante as soon as they are able to pick 1.2mm feed and i use durante for 1month before switching to local feed. In your own case i wont advice you to use local feed atall |
Re: Cat Fish Enthusiastic Farmers/lovers Come In Here And Lets Discuss. by excess4luv: 3:48am On Mar 06, 2015 |
@ Jam04 thanx so much, putting my thoughts together to work out security measures for the compound |

Nice thread, I will love to visit your farm someday, I'm a fish farmer too but I'm strictly into hatching, however I'm thinking about adding grow outs and I'm interested in the earthen ponds like you said no farmer knows all... To any prospective buyer, I have ijebu and post fingerlings in large quantities. I can be contacted on 08126562314 or 08164350140 |
Re: Cat Fish Enthusiastic Farmers/lovers Come In Here And Lets Discuss. by jam04(m): 4:04pm On Mar 09, 2015 |
oluwasuski: okay bro... happy sales |
Re: Cat Fish Enthusiastic Farmers/lovers Come In Here And Lets Discuss. by excess4luv: 6:26pm On Mar 09, 2015 |
Please profs in the house, i have gone for survey on fingerlings and juvenile, the price seems different in my area, fingerlings goes for #30 while juvenile goes for #40-50, coppen starter feed sells at #6000, and #1200 for a kilo, now my question is, are these prices good to go with?? Again i bought the white plastic tank of 250liters, how many fingerlings will it contain comfortably @ least for 2 months, what is the estimated expenses on feed for the two months. Please my OGAs and Madams ur analysis and guidance is needed as i intend to kick off by ending of the month. |

mercylicious:you dey mind the guy.. posting the same pix all over again deceiving himself. his last thread befor NL crash he was selling his manual at a ridiculous price to gullible people. |
Re: Cat Fish Enthusiastic Farmers/lovers Come In Here And Lets Discuss. by jam04(m): 5:06am On Mar 10, 2015 |
fzero:I guess you are among the many i turned down on the Ebook. The manual isnt for everyone, the purpose of the manual isnt money driven but purpose. |
Re: Cat Fish Enthusiastic Farmers/lovers Come In Here And Lets Discuss. by jam04(m): 5:16am On Mar 10, 2015 |
excess4luv:That tank will hold 500 fingerlings for 2 months.for the 2 months, budget 40k for their feeding during this period. Besides, why are you using tank? That coppen price is on the high side, infact very high. Why not try durante? |
Re: Cat Fish Enthusiastic Farmers/lovers Come In Here And Lets Discuss. by Johnnyessence(m): 6:56am On Mar 10, 2015 |
jam04:how much is durante hmmmm is it an imported feed too hmmmm. |
Re: Cat Fish Enthusiastic Farmers/lovers Come In Here And Lets Discuss. by excess4luv: 9:12am On Mar 10, 2015 |
jam04:500 fingerlings, what of the price, is it OK? What feed size should i start with and for how long. |
Re: Cat Fish Enthusiastic Farmers/lovers Come In Here And Lets Discuss. by jam04(m): 10:41am On Mar 10, 2015 |
Johnnyessence:Durante is an internatonal brand with company here in Nigeria. They also have big fish ponds in oyo. |
