Hello House... I am new to catfish farming.
One major problem in my area is the presence of "ions" in the water. How can this be tackled?
Thanks

What kind of ions? Do you mind sharing the test result for better assessment?

Hello everyone...thank you for this thread. Please i know this thread is for big farmers forgive me and attend to me.
I want to start catfish rearing as a hobby...nothing serious for now. If I succeed I might get serious but for now it's just a hobby.
Ok now I need all the help I can get. I have a 100 litres plastic container that we call buta plus steady water supply and space.

Pls what do you advice I buy like how many fingerlings
What feed to buy
Do I need to get any drugs for them?
To what level do I need to fill up the buta
How many times I day do I feed them and what quantity?
And how often do I change the water?
Do I need to bring the fish out to change the water completely or I reduce the water to a certain extent with the fish still inside and then add fresh water.
I will also appreciate any other tip that can help

Pls forgive my plenty questions I've never done anything like this before and I'll be very happy if I get it right.

Thank you all so much

Go to YouTube and subscribe to The farmlady channel. It's well detailed, I learnt from her as a beginner. Now am a guru

Good evening everyone.

I am new to catfish farming. I have about 1500 catfish in different sizes.

I am interested in selling oven dried cat fish. Is there any bulk buyer of oven dried cat fish or I have to sell to individuals?

Thank you very much....but thats a lot of information to sift through. The videos im seeing there are more advanced than what i need for now. So I would appreciate the answers to my questions here.

Did you run a water test to determine it's actually iron? If not it could be mud due to shallow bore-hole as I have seen in Lagos mainland. There are specialized filters designed for just that.
See what you can find on the internet

I planned rearing about 20 fishes in each of the drums. I intend rearing them to about 500g weight and smoking them subsequently.

was it successful?

Roughstart:
was it successful?

I tried but I didn't carry through with it. It was tougher than I thought possible. Changing the water frequently and all that.

for 100 litres of water, you can start with 500 fingerlings. 500 because, you might record casualty in some, at times cannibalism happens among them, either times death or so on

for fingerlings start with 0.5mm, (1 satchet) feed them lightly at least three times a day as overfeeding might kill them. Then proceed to 0.7mm, 0.8mm, 1mm, 1.5mm then 2mm.

When you attain 2mm, your mind is at rest as they are at the juvenile stage, less mortality rate. Sort big ones from smaller ones to avoid competition and for faster growth.

At all stages, ensure you change water daily since you have a steady supply of water as they enjoy the water trickling on them as a means of oxygen. Note: you do not have to bring them out to change the water, an outlet should be created in the tub where water flows out if you open the air valve. (Air valve is around 500naira and 1 inch pipe around same price) you can do it your self.

I'll be willing to answer more

Thank you for taking out time to answer me...but surely that 500 is a typo right? It's only 100 litres😃
