Fish4wealth:I acknowledge your comment, however 300k fingerlings is not too low because not everyone sell at your stated price. I dont sell less than 15 naira and that is even if it is on compassionate ground. I have seen sales from 25 naira from others too. The reason why many breeders pack up is because they dont keep records and hardly give quality care for premium price. One of the reason the market is messed up in quote is because no standards size and worst case is the issue of some selling ijebus(first many buyers can hardly manage it and secondly, fear or lack of sufficient resources in some case.). Because it is unpredictable, you dont sell just anyhow. Give the best and get paid for it. So, my 200k advice does not change. Also, a good breeder, except for challenge of facilities or space will not go and work for anyone. Only if they are consulted to come to breed and leave. Definitely you know the 3 days or 5-7 days they decide to stay, they will not collect less than 50k. However, the market have no define standard, hence you see anything happening 3 Likes |

if I get to use 10 bags of 15kg feed, will I get 150kg when harvesting? excelsiorfarm: |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by excelsiorfarm(m): 9:37am On Aug 11, 2020 |
holar2ge:depends on the feed conversion ratio of the feed you are using. If 1:1, yes. If 1:1.2, no. If worst, no. So, it is not only about that, the health of fish and water management is also very important. 1 Like 1 Share |

gonerest: how long have you been experiencing this and did you change your source of water? NB - I'm also here to learn but think this would help the gurus when they respond to your enquiry |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by owolabialao: 6:45pm On Aug 18, 2020 |
gonerest: when your fish does like that ,its called hanging. it could be as a result of stress if the condition does not change after one day ,then its sickness. u should treat the pond and the fish to avoid stories that tough . how u change the water may have cause the stress or the source of the new water. good luck |

Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by excelsiorfarm(m): 2:35pm On Aug 19, 2020 |
gonerest:Depends on many factors and one of the factors usually ignored if the stress people subject the fishes to during water change. Either slow water flow, temperature to say a few. If it continues for long, the stress have enabled sickness to occur and anti stress could have been handy or antibiotic |

Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by bilag17(m): 6:10pm On Aug 20, 2020 |
gonerest: This is a very serious case. 1. Stop feeding to identify main cause of death in order to stop it. 2. Change water regularly. Cause of death likely to be your inability to regularly change water. If not everyday, then every other day, while you make sure you're not over feeding. 3. When the water is polluted with uneaten feed, plus fish waste, and you continue feeding, mortality results. 4. When you change the water, add salt solution as an anti stress.

gonerest: Since you are sure they are good seeds, it could be stress from your handling, especially when you transported them. Stress results in disease outbreak and die. That is a possibility or originated from over feeding, poor water management. NOTE- you could change water daily and still pollute it daily by overfeeding. Advice, check feeding, treat with antibiotics or aquapro to boost their immune system. Just to say a few 1 Like |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by excelsiorfarm(m): 4:52am On Aug 21, 2020 |
gonerest:depends on fish. To be forced to over feed them A big meal cannot make them grow overnight. As long as you are providing the needed quantity need daily, and they are growing, no challenge. To know if your fishes are sick, you could flash light (touch), the sick will hardly swim away from the light rays |

I am not happy at all...PLS HELP ME my people |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Mubby4luv(m): 2:04pm On Aug 22, 2020 |
Herjyborlah:If it's your first time hatching, please do not use tapuline because it's very hard to siphon in it without causing stress. Make use of the the industrial 1000lts tank. I stand to be corrected 1 Like |

Herjyborlah: Depending on the leakage of its small, just get that A and B glue, apply it to another piece of tarpoline, glue the front and back of the leak, it should work 1 Like |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by smithclito: 3:11pm On Aug 24, 2020 |
Mubby4luv: One thing u should known for sure is that a females catfish will never release her eggs without the presence of a mature male fish. if the egg become overripe it get raptured and. reabsorbed. good luck 1 Like |
