What type of pond system do use? when last do you sort the fishes ?
for the white patches on the fish, put them in big barfu contain water ,had alittle salt , eg a tea spoon of salt to remove the white patches and will see the true color of catfish.
for the injuries on the catfish might have occur due to your rough handing in your last sort and pls ensure you put fish of equal size together.

STOP feeding, change the water if possible. Depending on the type of rearing facility, and capacity, get appropriate quantity of bitter leaf (the more the better), water extract the nutrients , add salt to the extract and add to the pond. DON'T FEED until mortality has stopped. This is an emergency approach. If you can't get bitter leaf, use salt solution treatment, before other treatments.

I noticed with displeasure that;

The last 20 pages or thereabouts are filled up with ads...
The bosses (people answering questions) are now away
The thread only added 1 page in 3 weeks

I don't think I will have any questions with what has been covered so far anyway...

Time for action...
More updates soon

Thanks a lot. I used the salt approach earlier before posting it on here and after couple of days and some deaths i think it's stopped now. I lost about 70+ matured fishes tho embarassed embarassed embarassed

Pls change your water for the tank and drums every three days, for their age as amature fishes they could eat such without problem with less or no spices like maggi and papper added when cooked, it might depend on the way you fed them(dumping of the food in their water) which lead to water population.
2) i suspect yeast, which is added in floors used in baking of the indomies.yeast product are not good for your fish in form of bromite.
3) increase your biosecurity around your fish eg children droping things to the fishes.

get them human table counter antibiotic and their vitamins to regain their streinght and dont stree them. Give then flooting feed to proparely observe them.

I will try and answer your third question,birds fed rich and nitrious feed and in healthy condition droping should be use, not sick birds poo to avoid tranfer of diseases , aspecial your personal monitor birds.
2) bird dropping are rich because the bird only consumes 60% while comes out as dropping 40% . now image for feeding your bird top feed or high porteinous feed. hmmm! delicious, your fish are takers.
3) it should serve as suppliment and not their mean diet.
4) as for polution ,no fear, after some minute,you will not notice anything like poo in their water, (but avoid dumping). i notices that it is more easy for their beg feed to pollute their water then a poultry drop.
5) wet or dry all goes
