Ayoolu: Thanks for your respond total harvest and how much made is of a personal discuss , many people have reached out asking how much was made the truth is that that's a personal issue but of worthy to note is that this particular harvest we made a very impressive return on investment and more videos have been uploaded teaching how we made this result for others to learn and make better Thank you 1 Like 1 Share |
Re: Harvest Of 10 Months Hybrid Catfish by Ayoolu(m): 8:17pm On Mar 26, 2022 |
I am not interested in what was banked. My main interest is on the FCR attained. I am a fish farmer too. I have attained 1.2 and 1.3 in the past using Ecofloat. I guess the video is to educate and not for entertainment. By the way, you are doing a good job. You have been of tremendous help in poultry. 3 Likes |
Re: Harvest Of 10 Months Hybrid Catfish by letsfarmnigeria: 10:17pm On Mar 27, 2022 |
Thanks for the compliment , eco float is a good feed . Try increasing your pond spacing compared to stocking density if that is done with good feeding you will achieve greater results |

Re: Harvest Of 10 Months Hybrid Catfish by gibsonwales(m): 3:17pm On Apr 13, 2022 |
How come you used 1650 bags to feed 5000 catfish from juveniles stage. 100bags is enough to feed 1000 catfish for 10 months, which means you need 500 bags to feed 5000 fishes for the same period. I'm really confused with the number of bags you used |
Re: Harvest Of 10 Months Hybrid Catfish by letsfarmnigeria: 5:16pm On Apr 13, 2022 |
gibsonwales:fishes are not calculated by no of months you feed but no of feed weight consumed when I started out this my target was for 2kg and about and I met the target and more I have videos of where I did 1000 fishes for 7 months clarias and what I used was 216 bags on a 2kg target so the main thing that affects your no of bags are : do you feed your fishes to satisfaction. Are you managing your feed. What is your target weight for sale How good is your pond How clean is the water inside your pond What's the water ph level If you are using a tight pond , the fishes will not eat well , if you are managing the feed the weight gain on your fishes will be low and then they will not eat much , if your pond water is not neat the fishes will not eat well and will not grow well , if you have a fluctuating pH it will affect their eating ability so that someone managed 100 bags on 1000 fishes doesn't mean the fishes did well you can find out what was the weight of the fishes during sell that will give you a clearer picture I hope I explained it better thank you 1 Like 1 Share |

letsfarmnigeria: I feed my 1000 catfishes with a max of 70bags for 6months and I get an average of 2kg each in weight (some exceed and some below). That's 2 tons in total weight from a total feed of 1ton. I make more than double of my expenses for 6months. You said you did 1000 fishes sometime ago for 7months and they consumed 216bags and your target was 2kg each in weight. I achieved that in 6months with 70bags ! If I may, what is the weight of each feed you buy ? Mine is 15kg each. I feed them to satisfaction (until they can't clear everything in 5 minutes) and I feed them twice daily. I clean the pond twice weekly. My target weight for sale is 2kg, which I achieve in 6months and I change their water on a daily basis. The water pH level varies between 6.5 - 9 2 Likes |

gibsonwales: Good luck on your success I achieved mine in 7 months and I had a minimum weight of 2.2 kg and l had a max weight of 4.8 but also I had less than 4% on 1 kg , their feeding varied sometimes they eat 1 and half bags sometimes 2 bags of feed , and I normally fed them morning and evening and that harvest was a success the video is on the YouTube channel |

CANNIBALISM IN CATFISH FARMING Cannibalism is catfish farm is the act of fishes eating one another in the same pond and this is a very dangerous occourance that can deplit the no of fishes stocked at a time in a pond. Pls this is to quickly remind us that letusfarm page is not forming any special WhatsApp page and does not require your no for anything pls let's becareful. If you have not followed this page simply type letusfarm on facebook search bar click on the follow button to follow the page, we are also on YouTube simply subscribe to our youtube channel letusfarm for more video discussions you can use this link to join https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxggXDo_l68 Pls share and like this discussion it's absolutely free to share just click on the button below If you are having issues on your farm or you want me to access what you are doing do a 2-3 minutes video and send it to 08135348909 I will take it up from there remember this service is free Like we were discussing Cannibalism is very dangerous in the pond however it's not unusual because fishes are cannibalistic in nature . But we can always reduce the effect of this act on the fishes , sometimes you may notice a fish that is weak and next time you will not see it again in the pond you maybe thinking that it well only for you to see the skull bone during changing of water . The case in an Earthen pond is worse because you may never see it until the day you are selling and pump out the whole water as can been on the pics below. The fish in that pic could have weighed more than 2 kg if alive but unfortunately it was eaten . Apart from the fact that fishes are cannibals in Nature there some situations that can increase their chances of this act , they include but not limited to ; SPACING : when the pond spacing is tight it gives opportunity for the fishes to injure one another and the sight of open wound increases chances of cannibalism. INTRODUCING SMALLER FISHES TO BIGGER ONES : it's not wise introducing younger fishes to a pond , what happens is that the older ones will feast on the these new ones introduced as feed especially if the age disparity is very wide INJURIES : It's always good to keep the pond safe avoid anything that will form obstacle in the pond , people using Earthen ponds should avoid tree trunks, people using tapolin and concrete ponds should avoid throwing in harmful objects inside the pond . DELAY FEEDING : For whatever reason feeding should not be delayed especially morning feed , this is because when fishes are hungry naturally they will make one of their types prey and the story will not be good. AVOID GIVING THEM FRESH MEATS : Some famers like to feed their fishes with fresh oncooked meat, intestine and alot while this is not bad idea but avoid giving it to them on regular basis because if giving them on regular basis it stimulus their appetite to such consumption and when not available the each theirselves REMOVE WEAK FISH IN THE POND : Anytime you notice a fish is weak and not moving as expected its very good to remove it from the pond and move it to a separate place and allow it recover because once other fishes notice that a fish is not very active they will likely eat that fish There are many other reasons but let's stop here for this discussion, however when you notice that your fishes are been canibalised regularly try and : SORT THE FISHES : try and immediately sort the fishes into bigger and smallers sizes this helps you to reduce the attack on the biggers ones by the smaller ones . REMOVE ANY OBSTACLE IN THE POND: Check and see if their are tree trunks, broken objects , remove them immediately. REMOVE THE WEAK FISH: once you notice that any fish is not swimming fast please remove it from the pond to avoid others devouring it . IMPROVE YOUR FEEDING : Try and improve your feeding because most times its sterving that triggers cannibalism if they are very well feed they will not have the strength to cannibalize another fish . Do let me know if you have questions in the comment section and if you have any thing you will like me to talk about pls let me know in the comment section Don't forget to like and share it's free https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=168748675588667&id=100073606069539 2 Likes |
