It seems I made a mistake with the capacity. Maybe it is 2,000 litres.

delivery from lagos to aba, don't you think it will be better for me to seek a closer source considering the cost of transport and conditions the fingerlings will face in the long route.

I won't tell u not to get it close by in aba, but we package the fish well when sending to different location, and the fish don't feel stressed. How many fish do you want, because we don't send less than 1000pcs.

My budget is to start with 250pcs

What local feed do you recommend to reduce the cost of feeding the fishes?

Whatever you say, some pple are still in the business. It all depends on what you have flair for. Have u ever been to Zartech fish farm b4. Omo, just go there you will shake. My advice is to get a professional/mentor around you as u explore the business. The best way is to smoke your fish and export. that is the best market strategy. you will make a minimum of 70% of ur investment dt way provided u rear it in a professional way. Go here to meet other successful fish farmer and buyers: growcatfish.com/forum

[quote][/quote]Some of nairalanders are not useful anymore; people here are just full of shits,
If you want advice on anything plz don’t come here, everyone is just trying to make money, why can’t there be good detailed information on farming, and I mean a true picture of it. Why can’t one get good info without having to call anybody?
If I want to start catfish farming 4eg I should be informed on the cost implication and expected income, that is why we are family and not one consultant telling you that you can make millions over night.
We are so corrupt.

@philip001,when making views it is faulty to generalise,if u want info,it takes humility to ask & not think when u make comments,info will come,iam an exception by d grace of God & so i blieve many others too.i always say ask on my post anything,whether concernin my post or those by grace i hav helped.let me help u a bit for 1000 fishes after 4-5,u make at least profit of 150K(when u hav structure)

I have taken my time to go through the root post and comments that followed. I wouldn't disagree with anything that has been said already, but as an individual who wants to go into a particular business, one should understand tha cost of setting up a business and also understaÑding the viability thÉ business.

Fish farming is not a business you just jump into alas you can check to see if you'll be satisfied with what you'll see here -

I believe it will be valuable for the serious minded that want to go into fish farming business.

Please am thinking of running a fish pond in Sapele delta state,is anyone here close to me that I can meet personally for updates? And I will like to know the necessary vaccinations and medications, and the vary time to vaccinate and medicate, and how much total will it cost me to run 500pcs of fish, and where can I find juveniles to buy in sapele or anyplace close to sapele,.


My Regards

interesting comments. I have B.agric (animal science) an presently running an MSC. I want to put it to you all that agriculture is not for everybody.is just for this with patience. it is try that the manual sellers makes too much notice just to sell their copy and print books, but which ever way u want to look at it. there is profic in it if u do it rite.

What is wrong with Nigerians?
Why must anyone call you? Why don't you share your experiences and ideas here so others might learn or start a thread?
Selfish man SMB(shaking my butt)

clementcro: @Mecaboy, your above analysis is totally wrong, cat fish farming is lucrative, the more you invest in it, they more you get your profit, if you invest like 2m in the establishment of the business, you can be making a minimum of 300k every month after the first 4 months of establishment of your farm.

If you need more information and how to achieve this, contact me on 08060595019

pls it interest me to know what u have learnt, thanks

For starters, 1st_seek practical hands-on experience b4 venturing, and then get a free hand-helping consultant to see u throught out d actualization of your first sales/havesting. 2nd_quality breed stock matters alot, cuz not all breeds can tolerate high stocking density or your best bet is to maintain a manageable stocking rates per pond space. 3rd_having ready & reliable source of water; and channeling for simple pond drainage and refilling techflow is highly important, and so it is for kick-starting your business on juveniles outsourcing cum procurement. 4th_among the various method of pond constructions; concrete pond is still the best, pond treatments before stocking is highly recommended: depositing like 75kg of poultry manure and lime wastes into pond filled with water , by this way leaving it all out to ferment for 3days after which these debris are drained out and pond rewashed then later refilled with cleaner water upon the arrivals of the juveniles. Thus, u must have proper local drainage system that will empty d debris content out to a simple lid-cover dug pit within ur farm and make an improvisal shedstand to prevent direct sunlight to ur pond. 5th_adopt a quality feeding regime in the first 2 and a half months then flow it up with customize feeds mixing within ur farm and also embrace steep vermacultural practice n inclusion on their feeding dietary like once in every 3 days; and at these sensitive stage, their water must be changed on every other day. Lastly_marketing and fish sales; its advisable to sell your havest directly to consuming public so as to offset ur total investment cost/ let me explain more here- there are 3 proven methods to market ur products<i> frozen catfish sales via mobile refrigerated vans poising at strategic locations in the city(already the fish are well freezen at its frozen location b4 being conveyed by mobile van to the point of sale. <ii>curled n smoked-dried catfish packed or stacked on small handcrafted trails displayed in the open markets<iii>live fresh catfish on a sealed enmass on a bath trough and with your weighing kilo pan; and conspicous ad banner stating ur product price per fish per kilo. Note, which ever method u choose, dnt ever try to feed ur fishes continuously as if u will never market them especically when they have reached marketable tablesizes stage. That is a business lesson for eveyone that will be interested in dz line of trade, as continuously feeding dz mature folks will still incurr further cost n expenses; in this way digging a hole in your net profits evenually. DISCLAIMER: this is not a get-rich quick scheme but a rather systematic ideology that these business venture will continue into the forseeable future; and it is best advisable to start at a turn-over batch by batch level; like a business initiative u can choose to adopt a bi-monthly harvesting policy, in these case one will need a few helping hands on monthly payroll; therefore, ur havest outputs, good managerial discipline cum marketing strategies will speak the volume in your pocket. For more free infos u knw where to find me. (even pikin wey dey chop garri wit okra soup b4 going to school, still look healthy like ajebutter kid with lunchbox ganished with indomies n chicken lap.) wat i mean is u can spend hell n dry on imported feeds but when compared to locally sourced methods, the only difference cant be out-ruled.
