Good day ladies and gentlemen of this thread,
I was wondering if in these times of deception and inflation, does anyone buy their feed directly from the suppliers, or is it strictly done thru distributors?
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by abbeydeeone: 11:50am On Sep 05, 2016
Seeking fast growing fingerlings?
Over 30,000 fingerlings would be available in Ibadan by 3rd week in September. The fries are 3weeks old now. Book upfront and see the growth progress yourself before 6 weeks old pick up date.

Dear farmers, I started reading this thread from the beginning. Feels like I have attended a fish farm seminar with all the lectures, challenges an solution proffered. I want to appreciate all (Rob, Ab1x, Excelsoir Ayosat just to mention a few) who have been their brother's keeper God will surely bless you all. AMEN

Please house I will be stocking my earthen pond o Friday with juveniles. I limed it and net it last week and pumped out the water yesterday. After pumping I discovered there were 2 or 3 averagely grow frogs and tapoles. wte killed the frogs but left the tadpole. My concerns:

1. Will the tadpoles serve as food for the juveniles?
2. It appears the liming was not as effective due to the presence of the tadpoles. Though on the very day of application alot died. I don't know how they got in again. Should I be worried?
3.What should I give them to reduce the stress of transportation?
4. As prevention is better than cure. What best practices in terms of medication can one adopt to prevent diseases.

Thanks

having treated the pond & all in good condition, lower the fishes preferable at a corner of the pond,dont be in a hurry to feed(there will be some food like plantons) Or take some of your pond water & add to the fishes before introduction to the main pond. there is no rigid sequence,the most essential is that you dont throw the fishes anyhow into the pond. it applies to all pond type

excelsiorfarm Good day my brother. please, how do you treat a tarpaulin pond before stocking with fingerlings? And for a beginner, do you advise starting with fingerlings or juveniles? Thanks.
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by 2saints: 1:56pm On Sep 07, 2016
EMERGENCY : I stocked 215 fingerlings in a plastic pond(GP tank) exactly a week today. I lost a fish 4 days ago with cause of death unknown to me. Today, while I was just observing the fishes, I noticed another dead one, as I look closely at the physical appearance I noticed that both dead fishes have short tentacles and what appears to be whitish is at the Base of the tentacle. I also notice that while feeding, some of the fishes just hang facing vertically and most of them have the symptoms of the dead fish tentacles.

Please I need urgent help as I will keep on refreshing this page till I get a reply from my able and experienced fish farmers.

This is my first culture, hence I'm a learner (novice).

Help o, what should I do?

i would have told you clearly that juveniles is better for starter, also breeder that is sincere in the size of his/her fingerlings would still do okay. All depends on the sincerity of the breeder. No friendly breeder would sell an ijebu size to a starter even if he/she plead for it.

About treatment, the conventional story that you will hear is use formalin, permanganate, chlorine etc or blagdon anti- bacteria etc, but when i see i have not the luxury of time to seek any of the above or they aint available, i simply wash with sunlight, rinse well, very well, then clean with hypo(using a clean foam), let it dry and afterwards soak in water for some time and flush out the water to the last drop. i could do such twice i.e the flushing. I use it same or next day, depending on time i did all the above.

How many times i have/had done this? lost count, but i always recommend the common one, because i do all my things with diligence or i dont do it at all.

Regards

Thanks sir. Can I use antibiotics again, cos I've used it once when I stocked, but didn't use after I changed the water.
