No.
The bigger they get the more they eat.
When is maturity for you? Most rearers see them as old enough for processing at four months old.
I have over fifty nine month olds and they are so big a single one can sell for 7,000 NGN. I can't count exactly how much they've eaten so far but I will estimate two bags or a little less.
Your bag is sufficient for at most a month and half to two months.

OK, so how much will I spend on feeding to raise 15 fingerlings to this size below?

Like I said in my first post, I can only guesstimate.

Your one bag is sufficient for at most a month and half to two months.

Hmm. I forgot about this thread. I wonder how OP is doing and how far his bag of feed has gone.
