@hinduskoso, it seems you are still a kid. Well, just be filled with envy and jealousy while your younger ones are out there making it. Imagine ooooo, he said I lied. Jeeeees. Even with all this images. Chai some people ehn, they are just negative in all their ways.

Op, great job so far! Experience sharing is awesome.

That stocking density thing though. Even if You are running flowthrough+aeration, be advised to reduce to700/800 max.

True, you can ctock your 1000, but thier growth wouldn't be optimized.

I don't intend growing the catfish till it get to 2kg each. I will only train them for 3-4 months before selling them out immediately. Well I may wish to select few to outgrow them in a selected pond, but will definately reduce them their number in the pond. Thanks a lot

Men at work.

Please your gravel is how many tons? Mean trailer size And your sand?
Please it's urgent[/quote]6 tires. Two tones for each trip

dondo83:
I know your experienced, what is your take on the 10by10ft size of the pond? @op know one knows everything, so please try and do more research on the size of pond, at this stage you can still make ammends if wrong. best of luck

What's your own take. I agree with you that no one knows everything.

Thank God for todays work.

Tomorrow is my birthday ooooooooooo, even crayfish, I don't have oooooooooooo. We go celebrate am by His grace. #miracleontheway

Hahahahahahahahahahaha lol lol. Every one is angered in this thread. U say anything ugly, heaven will let loose. Even now I dey wait for who go find my trouble.

@Apitch, u have made strong point concerning stocking density, both in theory and experiment, it is a known fact that overstocking of fish often lead to poor growth rate, due to various factors such as pollution, high competition for feed, etc. But I can beat my chest for you that with proper management, 10ftx10ftx4ft concrete pond will comfortably acomodate 1000 catfish.

Block laying in progress my observers, correct me quick oooooo, the work is moving with a speed of light. Thanks

Apitch:
Boss I can't leave it alone o cos I don't want you to make mistakes now than u can correct it, best stocking density is 20liters per fish, u can do 15 if u intend to use aerator or constant flow try but not 10. I advised u to ask questions, theory and practical no dey always be same. Finally I will rest my case if u insist but GOD is my witness I tried to help.
Visit a thread here titled hidden truth on catfish business and ask that question and see what reply u would get.
With that size, ur fish won't grow well and then u would be looking for who to blame or jazz from village to hold responsible
It won't take anything for u to ask practicing farmers the koko and keep theory aside
I rest my case

Please don't rest your case yet. You said 20litres per fish is suitable, fine. Have u related it with 10ftx10ftx4ft pond? What are u saying Chairman. Please, I have done every research work both theory and with experience, I don't need to ask this simple question on stocking density. Well, even if I put 10 fish in 10ftx10ftx4ft pond without proper management, then u will have a point. 1000 fish in the said pond is never an overstocking, NB: the depth will be 4 feet. So chill. Thanks you so much.

Whynotthetruth:
Good job...but plz would you mind adding the costs of various undertakings and reasons for whatever step...just to aid learning here...thanks

Mr. Whynotthethruth, thanks. So far, two (double) trips of gravel @ 25000 naira each making it 50000 naira, 5 trip of sharp sand @ 13000 each making it 65000 naira, 50 bags of cement @ 2000 each totalling 100000, plumbing material total cost will be 150000 plus workmanship, the digging cost 40000 naira, 7 iron rod. The cost breakdown will be tedious for me to give freely, except it will cost me something. Not withstanding towards the end of the project, I will spell out the cost estimated.

Sammer4life please, how old are you?

Apitch:
My brother please ask questions before u thread, what u read is often not the case when practicing it. That pond size won't take 1000 fishes brother. I used to think so too before but now I know better.

We have standards in pond stocking density, ok? It might interest you to know that I am a fishery graduate. So live that stocking things alone. Those fish go enjoy the pond like die. Thanks though.

Concrete floor has been done. We use sand, gravel, stone dust, with adequate number of cement to cast the floor of the pond. Thank God for today.

@Apitch, you can not tell the actual length of a pond on an image. Proper measurement was taken before digging was carried out. Don't worry, before friday, you will start to see the wonders been done. 10ftx10ft concrete pond will comfortably accomodate 1000 catfish from fingerlings to adult stage. Though, thanks for the recommendation.

Digging as been done, what is goin on now is the placing of the pond outlet before casting is done. The concrete mixing is goin on right now as the plumbers are doing what they know best. More update coming soon..........

Good morning to you all. After making contacts on the labour force, I went straight to the farm to wait for them. Today we will enback on,
1. Site clearing
2. Pond pegging and digging
3. Moulding of 9 inch. Concrete block.

I am about to construct a 10ftx10ftx4ft concrete pond in Abuja. The ponds are six in numbers and I decide to bring the work done as I kick off tomorrow. Pictures of the site will be constantly drop here to allow room for recommendation and observation. Pls kindly inform the room if any observation is seen. Thanks.

The last recruitment has been cancelled.

. Aso Rock Villa’s CSO Fired . Merilyn Ogar, DSS Spokeswoman, Affected . President Vows to Investigate Political Assassinations President Muhammadu Buhari has ordered the State Security Service (SSS) to cancel the promotion exercise it conducted for its staff in the last days of the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan, due to “observed lapses.” The directive was Buhari’s first order reversing his predecessor’s action since he assumed office a month ago. The order targets promotions that were conducted “from 31 March to date.” An SSS memo, signed by one, Toma C. and dated July 3, 2015, urged those that benefitted from the exercise “to revert to their former ranks with immediate effect.” A wide category of staff that were “promoted, converted and upgraded” by the exercise would be affected. “In view of the observed lapses in the promotion exercise released from 31st March, 2015 to date, the President, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria has directed its suspension forthwith. The personnel affected include those promoted, converted and upgraded within the period under review,” the memo said. “The DGSS has constituted a committee to handle the review of all the cases,” it said, urging its offices across the country to disseminate the information to all personnel. President Buhari also cancelled a recently concluded recruitment exercise into the SSS, it was learnt. Jonathan had approved last-minute appointments and promotions in various departments of government less than two months before leaving office, after he lost the 2015 presidential election to Buhari. During the period, the SSS carried out a promotion exercise where it elevated senior members of the service to the next rank, including its spokesperson, Marilyn Ogar. The exercise had reportedly drawn criticisms from other members of the service who felt they had been shut out. Last Thursday, Buhari removed the head of the SSS, Ita Ekpenyong, and appointed Lawal Musa Daura as its new director general. Also, security sources informed Daily Trust on Sunday that the president had approved the redeployment of his Chief Security Officer (CSO), Abdulrahman Mani, from the Villa. He was replaced, by Bashir Abubakar, a former assistant director of operations of the SSS in Kebbi command. A Presidency source has hinted Mani was sacked for revoking the order by the Aide-De-Camp to the President, Lt.-Col. Lawal Abubakar, removing operatives of the State Security Services from providing the close body protection to Buhari. The source, who pleaded anonymity, simply said last night that the president felt embarrassed by the “counter-directive” issued by the CSO. When contacted for comment on phone, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu, said he could not confirm the sack of the CSO as he was “not in town”. Mani, had in a memo, dated June 26, had asked the SSS personnel to ignore the ADC’s order, saying it was a misrepresentation of Buhari’s directive. The ADC had earlier issued a memo redeploying the DSS officials from 10 beats that they had previously taken charge within the State House and ordered military personnel and the Nigeria Police to take over the DSS officials’ duties of providing “close/ immediate protection” for Buhari with immediate effect. But the CSO had argued that the SSS personnel’s roles in the State House were backed by relevant statutes and gazetted instruments. He had listed such roles as including close body protection of the president in line with standard operational procedures and international best practices. Mani was appointed CSO to the president in April, after he won the election. The new CSO, sources said, was picked for the presidency job because of the neutrality he displayed during the 2015 elections, by refusing to dance to the tune of his boss in Kebbi to aid the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to rig the poll in the state. He was said to have been severely reprimanded for his action by the service and posted to its headquarters in Abuja as punishment. Meanwhile, Daily Trust on Sunday gathered that SSS staff across the country are happy with the appointment of Daura as the new DG because of his pedigree in the security outfit. “The appointment of an insider has raised the morale of our personnel who believe that he is their own and is going to safeguard the professional character of our job and restore its past glories,” one of the officers who does not want to be named, said.
