God bless u guyz reeeeal goood! I appreciate the help and will follow your advice to the latter.

My learned farmers, Q1. What can i give to my set of fingerlings that are not aggressive and eating enough? Though i do give Bavit and other premix. Q2. I leak my pond water and top it at night and change d water every 3 days but not all of it, then i refill. Hope my water mgt is ok?

jamp: Thanks. I was actually looking at the cost of the tank as 4000l is cheaper

Thanks

Pls, how much is 4000 litres tank and d price of dat square white tank?

robonski15: FEEDING YOUR FISH

You know feeding takes 70% of the total cost and there are no cut corners in feeding your fish..I tell farmers that "What you give to them that's what they will become" and that's a fact.. I have seen farmers that give their fishes Eba and the likes for them to gain weight, and its no surprise to me when they sell at a loss..

As long as you have right fish (like shooteers) and u sort and don't over stock my brother you can go ahead and feed them very well.. Let me tell u one deep truth when u stock the right fish(shooters) they can even eat less and yet grow bigger..

Now there are all sort of feeds available in the market from coppens,durante,multifeed,zeigler,aqua feed, ranan,vital feed etc.. When I started back then I was using coppens and there was a time I even bought a fake of it (coppens) but for some time now I have been using zeigler and I must say that I prefer zeigler to coppens.. I know most farmers will be raising eyebrow now but that's a pure fact.. Infact I had a client that sells vale viva feed back then the company did an experiment of coppens, zeigler,multi feed and durante, she told me that ziegler came out top,but I wasn't suprised because I had done my own finding too.. Coppens is just about the name, they are living on past glory.. Don't get me wrong coppens is a very good feed but I find zeigler to be the best feed what so ever..

I asked for ziegler at Sabina stores(major feed distributor) at Abatior oko oba dnt have. Where do u get?

Hi every, i intend to start a mini/backyard poultry farm, i want rear about 50 day olds. I need some info that can aid my success. 1. Where can i get quality day olds? 2. How much is a carton of 50 chicks(broilers)? 3. What kind of drug and how do i go about vaccination? 4. What kind of feed is required? I intend building a wood cage, like a mini pen and use lamp for humidity. Pls, kindly give me some guiding info. I reside in Sango, though am close to abatior but stil need to get insight first.

I hope they keep to their promises this time, i know the unplesant experiences we go through everytime we board the outdated, poorly maintained coaches. Trying to board it is another battle and its usually late, plus its administrator have no developmental plan despite huge sums made daily. We await to see them do the talk.

@robonski15 :You didn't comment on my post about my tampoline pond?!

robonski15: Yeah I guess for a starter I over stocked and nobody was giving me advice on the business.. Even my so called friend that's into it also duped me.. Buh now am far bigger than him.. By the grace of God..

Yeah i also belong to an association "Divine cooperative association".. Have heard about CAFAN and will like to join too..
Where is ur farm located and what do u do..

@robonski15,excelsiorfarm and others: Any advice for me? because am venturing into the biz and i intend to use Tampoline pond. I have a lean budget, which made me want to start small, maybe like 400 to 500 juveniles for start. Any suggestion or advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you robonski15, ur thread is quite insightful but some convesation that members inbox that can be of benefit to majority of us should be added to the thread pleeease. I have copied some very enlightening parts of the thread already, its like a mini handout on catfish farming lol.

excelsiorfarm: @op from yr reply sir,i acknowledge yr idea of goin to benin republic to learn,by grace i also was in ghana for more insight 7 Years back,from yr explainatn my bro,part of what made u to suffer loss then apart from what u didnt know then could also be because d fingerlings u bought initially was much for a starter,every fish farmer should join CAFAN.u can gain something from such network,such info help save others from going in anyhow,nice work bro.

I can't find the cafan website address.

I would appreciate if i can benefit from your fish farming manual: samshoz@yahoo.com

Here is my email- samshoz@yahoo.com. Do u hold meetings around sango area? I intend start up part time catfish rearing and snail too. Getting loan is a challenge. I also desire to learn but finance is a challenge.

God bless u guyz for the enlightenment. Can anyone help me the price of 2500 litres of plastic pond and what is the maximum fingerlings it can take?

I need the price of a good quality and affordable 3kva generator, that can carry submersible 1.5 ph water pump conviniently.

Good job guyz, u 've spoken well.

MY OF THE CONTRIBUTORS ARE GUYS.
MAYBE I SHOULD SPEAK FOR MYSELF HERE. I HAVE NEVER HAD A GUY DO EVERYTHING FOR ME LIKE SOME POSTERS LISTED.

I BELIEVE FRIENDSHIP, COMPANIONSHIP, TRUST AND DEDICATION ARE PRICELESS. THOSE CAN NOT BE BOUGHT WITH MONEY.

DON'T GET ME WRONG, I TAKE CARE OF MY BILLS MYSELF.

U are very correct, wel if what u have said is true or anything to go by, ur type is rare,

ThoniaSlim:
Exactly!

@Topic

How can we ever find true love when we are not willing to open our hearts to the possibility of finding it? How can we find true love when we give so little but expect so much in return?

I don't think the problem is with the existence of true love. . .the problem lies with us. . .

Sometimes true love might be staring us in the face and we do not even realize it because we are busy building up defenses. . .and blinded by our own selfishness to realize the sacrifices the other person's making for us. . .

I believe love exists. . .but what makes it true is time. . .Time either strengthens or tears it down!

With time you know if what you feel for that person is true or just a fiction of the imagination!

I really agree with u, thanks for bringing the "time" emphasis into the discussion. It really reals everything

God is love, love is having that nature of God which is "genuine care/commitment"

Luv is a fm of energy dt can neither b created nor dstroyed bt cn only b transfered frm 1prsn 2 d other&can b distarstrous wen nt controled

Hmmmn, another perspective, what u beliv becomes ur reality.

Wel, i believe true love exist but finding it takes God's grace & those who have it shud hold on tight dont let go!

@ estrella
I will speak for myself & not guys in general when i say i empathise with your frustration as evidenced in your post , but b4 you run out there & join the ever growing legion of feminist manhaters allow me to show you the other side of the coin using your own post.

There are too many stereotypes about naija guys e.g( guys are always the cheats in a relationship ) & it really becomes annoying ! wat about the guys that stood up for his girl wen her '' girlfreinds'' told him dat she was cheatin behind his back? wat about the guys who bends his natural logical thinking over backwards for thier girls when it comes to love i.e maga ? wat about the guys who drives across town to be with his girl on vals day even though he's fighting off a bad bout of malaria just to meet up with her ''romantic'' ideals ? they don't count now right ?

there are good guys out there ( yes you heard me) with somtin to offer & quite a number of girls screaming for blood on NL if they suddenly decide to be honest will tell you that at one point or another they met such guys in the past , but wat happened to end it ? why did they let a good guy go


just  food for your tots 

@ Filani, bro u made perfect sense to me, u 've said wats on my mind. I think ladies dont most of the time give more attention or hold on rather to guys that genuinely love them. Maybe the can tell us what more they are looking for in a man, that they had to let go off such sincere & rare guyz. May d ladies can talk to us about that.

amyg:
@poster,i think d qst should b 'wt hv u got 2 offer in a rlshp?'

Wel, i offer genuine commitment though its yet to pay off but i still believe in sincererity in relationship. this what i offer.

I never thought about this, maybe we get to hear from 'em

The question should be "after all these sacrificies, how many out these relationships lasted or had a happy ending" dont u agree?!

[color=#770077][/color] You guyz have said it all, dont keep secrets dat wil crash ur marriage and trasparent, it will make ur relationship lasts longer.
If u are told or discover anything about ur spouse, it wont move u, because of d initial awareness of her(& his) past.
