What an interesting thread to stumble upon today! I have been going over the thread from page 1 since morning. I must say kudos to everyone that has given out a great deal of information for the benefit of everyone. As an Aquaculture student myself, I have learnt so much on local knowledge of aquaculture than I have ever imagined in one day. It is never the habit of typical Nigerians to give out beneficial piece of information for free, so I am highly impressed! I observed that nobody is talking about cage aquaculture. It is an area that the beauty of every cost saving technique ever discussed here comes out. Imagine never having to worry about shortage of oxygen, pond leakage, water quality problems and you are not digging boreholes or buying land, yet you can produce all-year round! This is because you are using a pre-existing water body that is naturally 'home' to the fish being cultured. All you just have to strategize on is feeding. Our team has developed a model for cage aquaculture business. It is a big-monied startup, but the returns are worth it within a short while. It is really a diversified, multi-focused project, which I will term hi-tech; in that it involves more than the conventional cage aquaculture system. Just as someone said earlier, the hi-tech farmer has every edge over others. We are looking for interested investors in this area particularly in Lagos. The proposal can be mailed out to anyone willing. Thanks

Cage aquaculture has been existing for sometime now.. It has its own complexities but not overlooking its enormous advantages...

P.H of 8.5 is too high for fries to survive.. The acceptable P.H is 6-6.5.. Before hatching it is appropriate to test your water to accertain the P.H..

To correct the P.H add sodium carbonate in the tank and leave for 24 hours..
