Hello.
Is fish farming still lucrative?

Lordkratus:
there are so many things involved. from buying the right fish and the right size of fish from hatchery, to buying the right feed and the adequate quantity you need to achieve a table size fish at maturity, to know how many months they should be kept, to also knowing the quantity of fish per square metre that should be accommodated to achieve proper growth honestly the market is not just the last but even the least important because so long as you have fish at maturity people will come searching for it day and night

Hello.

please and please do not come into the business, if you must come in you need millions and millions of naira. To put things in perspective fish feed we used to buy for 4k is now being sold for over 10k, so if you add the extra cost to each bag of feed you need for your fish you'd see that we are talking about millions. It is still lucrative but no longer a cheap business

Okay.
But is it just because of the feed alone dat made it hard to get into?

yes there is super inflation in the price of feeding and feeding is the major part of the business because your profit is directly dependent on your feeding

Thanks so much.

I want to digress a little from the topic.

after my university days, the first business I ventured into was fish barbecue and I did at nysc orientation camp, as I know these otondo coppers like evening enjoyment, well it was a wonderful experience but after going to about three camps I decided to stop because Nigerians decided to flood the camp with their barbecue stand as well too and the hustle became too competitive with little profit margin. Essence of my story is , if you have a good location and customer base you will live well with the business.

U did your's in front of a bar?
