Catfish farming no be child's play. I ventured on that , with 3 ponds ( 1 tarpaulin and 2 Concrete ponds).

That shit was after my life.

You have no guarantee that all juveniles would turn out great. Some will shoot more than others. At the end of the day when you try to sell... those wicked wicked women buyers would tell you 800naira per kg and you should not feed your fish the morning they come to buy

Your right but every game have rules although those market women are usually out for all profit not minding how the farmer will fair at the end of the day.
I always encourage research before stocking so that u will know buyers and prices currently below 1kg is 1000 per kg and above 1kg is 1200-1400 per kg
And it's always good to have feeding money so that if the market women offers unfavourable price you can ignore them until the price is right because those women capitalize on the economic situation to down price.
We learn everyday

But if they get too big, they won't buy anymore.

It depends on location that's why it's always good to find out what's in demand before stocking in my area even if you have 6kg they will buy and if you have 1kg they hardly buy while in some places they demand only 1kg so demand differs from location to location

Wow! It is really impressive. Can we also raise king fish or seer fish with such methods at farms?

Regular change of water is the key if it's on earthen pond change water at least once a month and always top up water level with this contamination will be far from the fishes

In earthen ponds you have natural water recycling system but in concrete or tapolin ponds you can install or you change water ever 2-3 days to keep the fish fresh and clean from contamination
