Obiagelli: i would like to start a shrimp farm, i have been doing a lot of reading, is there anyone that knows where i can get life shrimp.

midastouch:

If you have anybody in the creeks (South-South area). The advantage is that you will get shrimp that is native to our climate that we are used to consuming.

I also have a huge interest in shrimp farming. I have also done lots of research and reading. Wishing you lots of luck.

Afam4eva: This one wey our APC brothers and sisters dey go into shrimp business, wahala dey oo #JustJoking

I'm actually into shrimps but i only eat them though. Don't sell rear them

FarmTech: Following.

Obiagelli take am easy o.

Only you get political farm for APC now you want to add shrimp farm.

Well to start shrimp farming you can buy live shrimp from Otueke in bayelsa or other nearby Ijaw villages in bayelsa or delta state. But hide your APC card When coming

To go into high yielding shrimp farming you need to get the live shrimp from Vietnam or China. I can hook you up but you need to leave APC and join any other party 1st

Obiagelli:
yes o, i am still waiting for Afam4eva to respond, i read i can have shrimps and tilapia in the same pond and the shrimps actually feed on tilapia waste.

How are your birds doing?

Afam4eva, Afam4eva, Afam4eva. Please respond na.

FarmTech:
..
My birds are fine oo. This shrimp-tilapia stuff I really like. Pls let me know when u start.
..
I once saw myself in a dream raising crabs, so I'm thinking if I shud add shrimps to it, it's not a bad thing.

tandj: Obiageli,I wanna ask u a question.
The shrimp pond(whatever),does it smell?
Can it be close to ur residential building or inside it. What of mosquitos? Do they breed inside the pond?

I wouldn't mind going into that line of farming but for family consumption only.
Thanks as I await ur reply.

Afam4ever, pls come and explain urself well.
Forget politics.

As a matter of fact, you can't actually grow most shrimps in freshwater environment because they are marine organisms. Except you have access to artificial or fresh seawater. The good news is that you can grow prawns, which are close cousins in earthen ponds. These are freshwater dwellers, and you can get them in large rivers. (Google: African river prawn, Macrobranchium spp.) I am sure of Asejire reservoir near Ibadan, where you can access the parent stock. Since they are not like fishes, they require more stable water quality parameters for their survival. In other words, you can't grow them as you would grow catfish or Tilapia which can tolerate varying conditions, both. Hence, they require a great deal of expertise to manage. Anyone interested further may link up with me.

FarmTech: May be u shud contact institute for oceanography and marine research project.

Obiagelli:
God bless you for your response, can you help me get parent stock? Do they accept artificial feeds.

matrixme:
Yes ma'am. I have done that before. Send an e-mail message through my contact so we can get talking.

Obiagelli:
a pm? Cos i can't find your mail address. Thanks.

Obiagelli:

the question is do native shrimps grow as fast as the "Agric" type? Do they also take artificial feeds.
