There is the field of topographical study and is used by developed nations when developing. They do the topographical study of the entire Nation and create zoned maps that zone areas for Flood risks or volcano risks, avalanche risk, land slide risk and so on.

One of the easiest to do in an area is a flood zone assessment, if you do not live in proximity of a very large river like river niger. Some very large rivers can flood out over hundreds of kilometers from their normal banks, so topographical study wont help much. People select low lands close to water sources to build fish ponds and that is the most basic flood zone. Any where near a stream or river is a flood zone. There is no escape from that reality.

What successful developments do within flood zones is they build up ramparts or dikes to the highest know flood level to keep the next flood from washing out the protected areas.
Observe the levels of this flood and build up the edges of your ponds to be much higher. Or put up high net barriers around the ponds so that water can flow through the nets but fish will remain.
I Suspect you will now have some wild fish species in your ponds. I like pond designs that incorporate some wild influence so the fish live a more natural lifestyle.
The flood level in the last picture does not seem very high. It looks like it will not take much more increase to raise the edges of the ponds.
Sorry Oooo ,but solutions are there for you to make a success out of it in the future.

I hope you did not build your ponds in a way that created a dam in the water source flow? Dams are designed to take advantage of a water source but they also raise the level of the water source bery high especially when it rains. The successful dams build in flood relief gates that bypass the the dam.
If your Ponds are damming up the stream to capture the water, you will need to first work on a flood bypass gate that can be opeded during rain. The flood bypass gate must take excess water to flow around the ponds and not through them to wash out all the fish. And then after making the bypass gate you can also raise the height of your pond edges.

Sorry about the loss sir, you should consider netting the ponds with a strong net when restocking.. Once the net is properly fixed it will prevent the fish from swimming out or carried away even if the pond over flows due to flood... May God replenish all that you have lost.. All the best sir

Sorry Bro.
The great make mistakes because they take many great steps.
The unknown make no mistakes because they attempt nothing.

Please I want to request all our Fish farmers to locate their pounds away from flood-prone areas that even a 10hr heavy downpour will never reach it. To achieve this you need protected and elevated pounds. Farming is the future of this Nation not Oil. So it must be protected than pipelines.

Thank you so much, I wish our youth can understand great deal of profit in farming, and stop abusing Buhari. If you see Dogara farms and other politicians. You will realise how myopic some Nigerian youths are. Thanks
