Since u have just little knowledge in fish farm. Keep buying the feed for fingerling in kg then till they grow topost fingerling wen they can eat from 3mm above. Then u start buying in bags. how to avoid over feeding. Feed 3times a day. Have a feeding point. Feed slowly and stop feeding wen u realized that the fishes are no longer rushing to feed. Avoid floating of feed as it wil increase ammonium content in d water. Avoid noise while feeding. Gudluck.

U don't need to feed 3 times daily u feed twice then if u target 1.5 kg body weight and above budget 210000 ie if d bag is 4200 and u and targeting 1.5kg body weight at 4 .5 months
Meaning u need 50 bags at 4200 per bag but if u target 1kg body weight u will be looking at 33 bags that is app 140k
Goodluck guy

It’s no secret that feeding is the most important task in the production of catfish — aside from personal experience, studies even show this. So if you have catfish in your pond, be reminded that there won't be any gain without feed.

Here are some tips to help you decide on how to feed your catfish (or see if the feed you already have is suitable for catfish) and how to make sure your catfish get the best nutrition they deserve.
