good day bro what is the issue with my arithmetic
No, chairman what I meant was that those that claim that they are changing our people/country should come and learn from the likes you in this thread on what real change is all about. May God bless you all for selling you knowledge without money.

My brother to doff cap for them is not enough, they need more than National Award. Let our presidents come and see and learn how to change Nigeria from them. They don't want to know your ethnicity and answers will be given to every of your question. God will definitely AWARD AND REWARD THEM.

I mean I lost money but I am yet to pin it down to a particular reason, however, here are some of the reasons that come to mind:
1. Mismanagement: Partner rented bigger house and did wedding after my loss with salary that is not enough to take him back home from work and told me he had no saving few months before I pull the plug on the business.

1a. Partner have supervision of business to someone else and he was hardly there.

2. Overcrowded stocking.... from what I know now, the pond where 5000 was stocked was meant for just 200 fishes

3. Improper feeding... the fish will surely feed on each other since they are crowded and probably my money was being used for other things and not feeding them well

4. I was greedy because I know nothing about the business and proposal was made to me and I jumped in stocking 20,000 fishes.

The list goes on but like i said won't do it again till I find the right person and I have seem that it is a business one must know about it and not just put money and look away and noticed too, it is better to grow with the business and not be greedy.

I prefer concrete for now or the tarpaulin because they are easier.to manage... when u change water u could see the fish head that has been consumed and with clean water u could see the activties in and under the water.....

I am not saying earthen is not good Oh, I am only saying for now, it is not for.me...

And remember, I am just a NOVICE.

Ok, you have said well but in all you don't have any problem because there are many Ogas in the house who are willing to help, even some are using earthen pond. They have answer to every fish farming question.

Lemme give you my novice response.... the day you will introduce the new local feed, starve them the previous night and if they still don't rush it.... talk to robonski and the rest because I am a novice.
On the earthen pond issues, I have been burnt using it and thereby always stay clear to I see someone I will work with nd ready to share the loss if any just like we will share the gain....
Good luck
Sorry sir how were you burnt by earthen pond, please let us know even it's in brief

Get the following items, Salt (depending on how big your pond is) you can get 15KG, Oxy; just 800 naira worth, and a lot of wood ash from any bakery. Drain the water in the pond. Mix the three stuff together and apply in the pond. Leave them for 48 hours.



Are they eating local feed formula or floating feeds? Your response will determine how to apply drugs inside their feeds.
Sir, they are eating floating(Durante feed)
The infection is just on few, I have seen like two but I only succeeded in removing one out of the pond.

I am doing great my brother. There are different kind of local feed formula. Everything depends on one's pocket. Some farmers introduce maize, koko garri, broiler finisher, pkc etc in their local feed finisher. I mainly use little maize with enough biscuit in my finisher. Making 100kg, it can be fm 10, ts 15 gnc 15 maize 10 biscuit 30 flour 20 premix 0.5 salt 2 vitc 100g dcp 1 molasis 10
Chairman pls don't be annoyed , this things are they all in kg,you our teacher in this thread sometimes speak in "tongues". Please Sir break them down for me and at what month can one start using it.
God bless you.

Nigerians too like awoof, cheap nd unreliable data
. Buy genuine data naw undecided thank God, the network providers re reducing their data prices... soon nd very soon, etisalat 1gb will go for 1k.. someone had an issue with club konnect and he came to nairaland to put the blame on etisalat, as if it's etisalat dat owns club konnect.. another person will still get scammed and d person will still come here to complain...

And by d way, this topic shouldn't be in this section...
Bros why are u talking like this? Is it not on this site they advertise it?
Of a truth if nothing is done by their HOST ( NAIRALAND) it then means that NAIRALAND is a suspect for not calling them to order.

If they cant pick 2mm Durante keep feeding with coppens, when they are big enough to pick 3mm you can switch to durante.. it might be the size of the feed.

Most time it is two weeks interval. but their growth rate can also determine that. it could be less if their rate is high or more that two weeks if their growth rate is low. but two weeks is the normal interval period to change.
Ok, thank you very much.
