Hello house, am not here to dent anybody's image or business. All am trying to say is please and please, try and check what ever anybody is trying to sell to u on this forum or any Wattsup group to avoid waste of ur hard earned money. Like I said earlier, if its feed u are buying, buy little and take it to a lab for test to know the composition of the feed. Especially those that are selling local feed on this forum. Most of dem, mark my words, most of them just lie to about the protein content and sell u rubbish and at d end of the day, opt out of fish business, saying it doesn't pay. Pls we should do the needful and stop being lazy cos fish farming is not a lazy man's business.

I think there is more to this than what u have said. Well, if u decide to keep quite and not be specific no p. Its ur choice. As much as there are credible farmers, consultants and products around it pains d heart that a lot of people and products indeed lack integrity. This lack of integrity issue is d difference between most of our local feeds and d so called foreign feeds. My advice, if u cannot professionally prepare ur own feed which might not be cheap too to be honest, use any of d available feeds that have stood d test of time and with intergrity too. Its not about d numbers u stock, its about how well u can manage it. So stock only what u can adequately cater for instead of seeking cheap alternatives promising u high cp but a scam. Don't worry tho prosperity will surely judge all those scammers!

It might be as a result of the new environment or direct sunlight.

sometimes i seem not to understand some folks, if u try out a feed without result stop using it and get the feed that better suit u.
Truth be told how many of us has taken it upon ourselves to test the so called foreign feed?Not at all because it is branded foreign. Excel said because a feed is cheap doesn't make it bad which i totally agree. Right from time immemorial fish farmers have been loosing their hard earned cash with the same imported feed like wise me. I remember i lost more than half of my stock using top feed who did i run to with all their CP i achieved nothing. From experience farmers tend to blame their shortcomings on a new feed most especially when it is cheap.

Please house,

I am a first timer in fish farming. I have been making use of Coppens. And so far, my fish have been doing great. I bought some local feeds on this thread (Name withheld), but I'm scared of administering it to my fish. I don't want to tell stories that touch. The neutral persons (4 of them in number) that have used this same feed told me emphatically that they did not observe any impact on their fish as claimed by the producers, marketers and promoters of the said feed.

The only persons who have told me good stories about this feed are the distributors, and you know their opinions cannot be unbiased.

Is there anyone who has bought and used any of the local feeds advertised on this thread, please come and share your experiences with us. Neutral persons please.

fzero:

I made use of coppens i did not make any profit due to its high cost and no significant increase in fish price(we should look into that also).
i bought one of the local feed advertised on this thread though it got my water really polluted cos of the bonding which i had to change water often not easy for me but i made my first ever profit in fish farming using the feed the fishes added tremendous weight which i hv never experienced before , i just got samples of the new improved floating feed from them and working perfectly no more pollution, good thing dey improved on the feed. Dont judge by hearsay test it yourself

Businesstools:
I'm aware that using Coppens through-out will not give me any profit. So I intend to switch to local after 2 months.

Hello friend, I feel ur plight, and believe it or not am only trying to warn innocent farmers that buy feeds(especially the local) about the composition of the feed they are buying and giving to their fish. I went to Agege and was surprise that a member of this forum is only using PKC, maize flower, blood meal and wheat offal to produce a feed that they sell to innocent souls. I mean, can u buy such combination for 220per kg and give to your fish?. If not, the least I would ve expected from u is to encourage young farmers to do the right thing and ensure whatever feed they are to use should be tested to avoid losses

mercylicious:
Wahala dey ooo.
Time to get the feed tested and compare with other feeds vis a via f price.

E speakilekwe ( in Nkoli naa nsukka's voice)

fzero:

very true, get the new floating feed as adevertised, i introduced my colleague to the feed and he has since never stopped using it,Note that not everybody is happy when something good is gaining ground there will always be critics to jeopardize one's effort(they are seven of them spreading false rumor and causing havoc)dont ask how i knew lol. also most users of the feed are guest who dont comment they only read. waiting to hear more users speak up

Hebraham:
dislike hypocrisy and let's get the fact right (1) fishmeal remain the most essential ingredient why (2).blood meal remain the highest ingredient in crew protein. (3) other animal with high crew protein such hydrolys feather meal that are major animal protein meal that are common in our environment 4) unfortunately the inclusion of blood meal in feed production is not allow in so many country as a result of the problem of mad disease were, it is allowed 13.4 percent inclusion as been scientifically recommended in the production of feed also, catfish can only utilise about 65% and its inclusion in feed production should not exceed 20% in feed production.
with these statement of fact quality feed can only be achieve with some percentage of fish meal. and for one to achieve 50% C.P at least 25% fish meal will be required in feed production. With these my submission 60% C.P cannot be achieved with #220.

excelsiorfarm:
pls let those that had use the feed in question speak out, not every silence is ok.Silence is not golden when the truth is meant to be told. Indeed not everyone appreciates success & progress of others.I had seen it on this thread B4,but d culprits faded away(though this isn't to support your assumption).No wise man rise by pulling others down. Therefore let them do abit of clarification for many would be expecting it for re assurance.
