Help! Upcoming Fish Rearer Needs More Knowledge. by fartkay(op): 1:46pm On Jun 10, 2020
on the 23rd of may 2020 I got some catfish fingerlings 200 pics and started culturing it. it being 3 weeks now and I have already got 3 dead fish.

I need to know if the number of the dead fish to the total is normal or something to worry about.

they have all grown to an appreciable size with few exceptions.

Did any one of them fall to bare ground ?

Also try changing the water from time to time

the dead fish I posted, I still met it alive when am about to feed them but was sluggish in swimming and I realized others were going close in a manner of biting it, I then decide to scoop it and isolate it for monitoring.
in about ten min. when I checked back I found it dead
