excelsiorfarm: 25/30 kg, make your friend go d farm to collect it, tell him your friends are not desperate for sales, except he intends to pay more for services(laugh)

Etranshub: Amazing....so someone would read this write-up and would be impress that you have done a great job not knowing you have no clue of what you are talking about. You stole this from bethsaidal.com from the topic "types of smoking ovens (avoiding PAH) and can not even afford to put it in your own words. You are still planing on going back there to still information about export yet you have never exportated anything and you didn't even make reference to the website. You are pathetic and should be sued for intellectual theft though the informations out there are free but they are discovered from years of research and hardworking....I won't comment on that your oven but I don't see how that will smoke and prevent PAH....#goodluck

Belexy: Dont be discouraged bro and u dnt av to stay on d sideline bcoz of wat he said. Ur comments, contributions and projects are well appreciated and im sure alot of pple here are looking forward to seeing more projects frm u. Keep up d good work.
Concerning wat he said, if really u got dat write up frm his site den u shd apologise and acknowledge the owner/site/blog u got it frm. Its not all about sharing information but rather sharing the information the right way and acknowledging the owners of the shared content.
Plagiarism is a serious offence in d intellectual world. Alot of us copy and paste on nairaland but we get away with it either bcoz the owners of d content are not bothered wen dey see it or bcoz dey are not even on nairaland. Im sure even sir bethsaidal also got his write-up from a site and i do hope he acknowledged the owner of d article too.

excelsiorfarm: bro, last sentence, any proof?

Belexy: No concrete proof on my last sentence. Im only speculating bcoz theres no way u will write an article with so much facts and precise details without using some reference material. We all did projects in skul.

JuveFarms: Pure Hetero Specie (Jumbo Size).

opes: Damn,too much..maybe 2500 catfish..

Fhemmmy: How old is that fish, sir?

maaji: Good day guys. My names are abubakar Nasiru Suleiman. I have an interesting story to share. I reside at school at Abuja but I stay in nassarawa. My father is a retired custom officer. In 2009, he was introduced to cat fish business buy some guy. The guy convinced him to buy fish and breed. He told him how lucrative it was and every other sweet talk you know. He never told him so many key things he needed. So my father ignorantly decided to go into it. He established the pond in nassarawa, in a village called Toto. yes I mean a village(that’s his first mistake). He established 4 ponds. Each having the ability to carry nothing less than 3,000 fishes. But at a certain time, he converted one of the ponds to reservoir (because we were short of thanks. We they sell water). One faithful day, GBOAAAHHH,the pond just burst and all d water in it were over d place(thank god say person no dey there because as d pond break, d thin push water with blocks enter all our room. If to say person dey near d pond nkoh………but thank god sha). So remaining three ponds. Now he stocked 5000 fishes in the three ponds. When the man brought the fishes, they where tiny and could not be counted. But still he stocked them sha(we were still novice). So we feed them for almost 4 months. Just feeding them with food and no extra knowledge on anything. Now my dad, as a retired custom officer decided to use his PENSION, yes, pension money take invest in all these things. Now the house we stay is a big house. There is a pure water factory in it and there is good clean water. We encountered these problems
Security—as important as it seems security brought us down. My step brother will always go into the pond, at night and steal the big ones and sell to different people at cheap rate (dat guy get mind ooo).
Feeds
--– we just dey buy food any how without knowing how many bags of feeds are we supposed to give them for that month. We later ventured into local feeds without knowing when and the time we were supposed to give them the local feeds. And again, I no know how my dad do am but him go buy corn, grinded fish, blood mean and d rest. Plenty ooo. We decided to mix them. We miss them with shovel sef.lol. My dad. He had plans but executed them terribly. So when we feed them with the local feeds we will see the feeds sink. then when we drain, we go see the feeds don dissolve for inside water. Dem no go eatam at all because we got the FORMULA all wrong. (I know that one now but its late already).
Marketing----very important. As I was saying, he constructed the pond in nassarawa. Dose villagers no know d values of anything fish sef. Dem go dey prizam any how dem like. So we decided to carry dem to the next city which is Abuja. From that village to Abuja na 800 naira drive. We took the fishes there. Hmmmm. We sold it all sha.
But it will shock you that after everything my dad said he spent 3.5million on everything but all he could get was 26,000 naira. Yes. U heard me twenty six thousand naira only. Now the man don dey broke like anything. Funny enough na now him con dey get the right information. When money no dey.lol
After about 3 yrs. I did my i.t at ADP i.e agricultural dev project. I was taken to fishery dept. hmmmmm, I learned few things. I told my dad all I learnt like say make d man cry lol. He said he wished he knew all these, I simply told him say it happens to everyone. That’s life. Like this my guy said he lost 2m in just 2 and half years. the pond has been abandoned for 4 years, so as a zoologist and someone that did his industrial training at a fish pond, I want to make my dad’s dreams come through again. I want to go back and start again. I need help. I need advice. Am just a 400l final year student. I will soon write my exams. I won go do this business again. I don’t want to repeat all what my father did. I need help from any person. What I need to know entirely about fish farm. If una no fit do much typing, see my phone number and email.

JuveFarms: @Oga Fhemmmy, the fish na from open water them catch am. Therefore, me no get answer 2 ur question. This no be clarias nor Hybrid.

Belexy: Sorry to hear about ur dad's loss. I am sure u av learnt frm his mistakes and also learnt frm where u did ur IT.
Its good u av not given up hope and u are willing to take dat bold step and try again.
I will advise u go through this thread from page one. Make sure u read and understand everything. Use ur discretion in filtering out the irrelevant points. Ask questions as u read along and jot down points.
I will also advise u start on a small scale of about 500 fishes. It will enable u get more 1st hand experience.
I wish u good luck.

excelsiorfarm: a simple way to know what to stock, multiply d lenght x breadth x depth x 7.5 x (3.79 us litres) or (4.55 uk litres) = capacity of your pond, u can calculate about btw 10 - 12 litres each, with experience can reduce to 8(great work), u never mentioned depth, any calculation or answer of stocking given, is mere assumption, do d maths & u are free to do your stocking calculation,yourself at any time. Happy Sunday

mozek24: Thanks for the formular again bro.
