Good pm to you all
Make una grab una sit, order popcorn and coke sidon jeje and observe the rest tori.
My next post will be on some safety that you can add to you farm practice so as to reduce early fry mortality. Tho farm practice differs but I'm sure I will surely help. Criticism, correction and contribution is allowed. Make all of us gather chop hatching money.

I did a research online to check out the cause of the MASSIVE mortality cos if over a million fries were in my pond it won't take them up to 7days before all of thgem pack up. I got a result that was close to my experience and it was fungi infection. Dunno if any person have experienced such? Its like a white patch on the fish skin and if only one fish is infected in the pond, the rest might get infected within 48 hours and pack up.
So I went to 2 different vet and each of them told me to buy iodasteryl and formalin. I mix d two together and used it. I started hatching again but I still experience the mortality but not as fatal as before.
*Them tell me say artemia dey kill fish, I threw my artemia away
*Them tell me say make I start with 0.2 but e no work 4 me
*i started using drugs for d fries during the first week and mix the drugs 2 their feed but it didn't worked at all
* make I stop here so I no go bore una
But one thing I did was I alway take note of my mistake and improve on all subsequent hatching and observe possible error I'm making, listd and corrected them. During this period I went to different farm, research and I even asked 4 help on this thread.
Everything turn around wen I adopted a method and only one fish survived but I kept the fish and told myself that my next hatching will be better than that and it was so.
I thank baba God say I'm back and better now
Lemme call your attention to the costly errors I made that cost me a lot
* I didn't treat the broodstock that brought the infection to my farm before using it and adding it to my broodstock vat
* I don't disinfect my vat/pond after every successful/unsuccesful spawning, wat I do den is just salt and water
* I gave all dead fishes that were infected to my broodstock to eat (stingy me, I no want wastage)


I guess I will stop here. Any addition, subtraction or question is allowed

Safe

robonski15: Welcome on board sir, kindly read through the thread to get some info and also www.agricnetwork.com

oscarvicto: What's the maximum capacity that of pond that can be used with this aerator?

robonski15: I am impressed sir, i would love to see it working in a pond. keep it up

robonski15: U can visit their website and call a representative for latest course duration. www.songhai.org

Etranshub: Amazing....so someone would read this write-up and would be impress that you have done a great job not knowing you have no clue of what you are talking about. You stole this from bethsaidal.com from the topic "types of smoking ovens (avoiding PAH) and can not even afford to put it in your own words. You are still planing on going back there to still information about export yet you have never exportated anything and you didn't even make reference to the website. You are pathetic and should be sued for intellectual theft though the informations out there are free but they are discovered from years of research and hardworking....I won't comment on that your oven but I don't see how that will smoke and prevent PAH....#goodluck

robonski15: My bro i must commend your effort so far on this project this is wonderful.. This customized smoking kiln is a good means of adding value like u said. we should be looking at adding value to our product by smoking, filleting to sell either locally or internationally. overall packaged product sell more but the challenges are high and so are the rewards if the challenges are met. we should see beyond just selling to the market women and look at other alternatives in selling our product with higher returns.. @Retin01 have u fixed a price yet for the kiln and aerator? Pls do get in touch with me ASAP.

retin01: my Oga inthe house the kiln and d aerator is ready but I will b going to somebody farm by next week to test d aerator in d vat. D kiln uses gas and charcoal ,and electricity to power d turbine. With time I will go 4double door kiln. NB Catfish smoking business is a booming industry recently but must of them are not properly processed. Majority of the smoke catfish in the local market are processed using ovens with firewood or sawdust which exposes the fish to a lot of smoke containing carcinogenic material called Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH). These substances can cause cancer in the long run for whoever is eating food materials exposed to them. This is one major reason why most of the smoked catfish produced locally can not be allowed to pass the US and UK border when one is doing a formal exportation ( watch-out for the next post to read about formal and information exportation) Apart from the fact that one can not export any fish containing high PAH, it is also very stressful and unhealthy for the person processing the fish. Considering the fact a lot of educated people are going into farming business and many of them that are fish farmers prefers to add value to their harvest rather than sell it to the market woman that end up pricing your harvest below cost of production. One of the few ways of adding value and making more profit from catfish harvest is by smoking and smoking should be done in the proper way using ovens that exposes the fish to zero or minimum PAH. This can only be achieve by smoking your fish with charcoal, gas or electricity.
Both gas and electricity expose your fish to almost zero PAHs why charcoal exposes the fish to minimum and neglige-able PAHs

robonski15: My Goodness!!!! i just hope the 500 catfish is a typo error.. About this so called "iya eleja" women when i spoke about the charms they use in their fiendish act, most people didn't believe..its so dis heartening!!! "Marketing" is one issue we need to tackle, it is unavoidable, getting your sales and marketing right is crucial to the success of any business. I know with time we will have dedicated fish buyers from our networks.

We have had quite a few dedicated buyers who contacted me from agricnetwork but only from 600grms downward "melange size" no matter the quantity but only within lagos and part of ogun state. Call or send me a mail if you want to harvest within that range.
