Ok my brother, thank you. I appreciate. At what stage will one be changing from one size of feed to the other?

ayosat:
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.

okay boss

ayosat:
@ Aquadude15. wow what a great story there. thanks for sharing. The thing is that there is no success without a story to tell. we all have our own story. Even me battle with fries motility for months last year, to the point that I almost leave the business. I had even at one time dusted my certificate and ready to go and search for work before things turns around for good again.
To make matter worst my wife was frustrated about the whole situation and I lost her support. I tell you it was not easy. I had to support myself with other means, at least to feed my family. for the first time in my life I was in serious debt. what an ugly time it was. But one thing I get from hatching is that the process keep changing. If I have a success with one batch, the process may not work for another batch. So I keep changing method. I know few people that have called it quit with hatching. But one thing is sure Winners Never Quit and Quitters never win.
With God all things are possible...

Hello House pls is it possible for 3 ponds to have different ph and dia source of water is dsame and also I pump water to d 3 ponds at dsame time and now dia ph is 7.2, 8.2 & 9.3 respectively.

ayosat:
it is possible. those ponds that are more exposed to sunlight will have a higher pH. so it depends on sunlight exposure.

Thanks for the write up robonski et al. I am really looking to venture into the business. I have done a lot of research myself and i do have some questions for you.
1) Please how many fish is advisable to stock in a 10 by 18 ft concrete pond with recirculation pump running?
2) what is the proportion of feeding. One feed seller told me its one 15kg bag per 1000 juvenile fish. Please advise
3) Are there any periodical medicines to use for the stock as it is in poultry?
4) where would you recommend to buy good stock of shooters?
Thanks my reputable fish farmers

Good day everyone, pls am sort of doing a market research on catfish. Please does anyone knows the marketability of catfish in the East, in Abia state precisely. How long can a farmer sell at least about 10,000 catfishes in the Eastern part of the country especially in Abia state. God bless.

This thread is one of most widely read agriculture thread on nairaland, please accept my apologies as am not trying to derail it.

I have some mobile tarpaulin pond in Port Harcourt for sale as a result of temporary relocation. Their dimensions are 17ft by 9ft, 10ft by 8ft, 6ft by 6ft. It is a full starter pack for new farmers and good upgrade for old farmers.

You can contact me on 08060468930 if you are interested.

Lorjes:

robonski15:

How many pond do you have? I will agree with oga Ayosat for you to start small before expanding..

robonski15:


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.

Abiola1016:


I actually have 3 of 10x 18 feet constructed. But i want to start with one of them before expansion. I planned to max one pond out to a capacity (1500 juvenile) and see if i will have issues with the population. What do you think? Please advise. Also please how many gram of feed per juvenile to tablesize?
Ayosat had mentioned 15kg per 1000 juvenile to table size is wrong please advise...
