I first found this thread before I started my fish farm and it was rich with information and with very helpful individuals. Now it's full of adverts and beer parlor fights.
To the reason why I'm making this comment....
This is my first rodeo in the fish farming business. I got 500(520) fishes at the start of January, I sorted these fishes yesterday and I only counted 475. That's 45 missing, although I didn't count them from the farm I got them, but I called the farm and he said that the missing ones have been eaten(really huh). So those who are experienced, is there a way one can tell when fishes get eaten? Or is there always no traces?

After sorting, about 150 of these catfish have grown to an impressive size(who knows if they are actually impressive since this is my first time), then the large bulk of them seem moderate. But there's a fraction that I separated from the two ponds that seem to haven't changed in size since the first day I got them. They are about 50. I place them in a baf now and since yesterday, they haven't eaten their feed. What should I do please?

Other problems I seem to face is, their water stinks frequently. Especially the ones with the bigger fishes. I change the water in the evening and the next morning, it stinks badly. Is it supposed to be this way? Especially for their age?

Thank you as you reply.

Good morning to u.
First, from d beginning of January till now is enough time for such number of fish to have been eaten by other ( the reason y u see some are very big) . The fish u bought are not very good set, that's the reason u saw those small ones that did not grow well and they have not been feeding well.
third, the reason why the water is stinking is because of r water management practice, u overfeed the fishes thereby leaving a lot of feed in the water which end up polluting the water.
fourth, the small fish that are not eaten place them in a comfortably place, u can give vital to boost their appetite or any other appetizer but don't overfeed them.
hope I clear the air for.u
Pls stop changing their water too frequently, the stress is extremely too frequently and much such as sudden change in water composition,water temperature ,Ph and so on, it will surely afect their body activities including growth, feeding and any other thing u can think of just work on r water management practices.

No sir. Am into aquaculture hatching then selecting the best to rear. (catfish). Pls stay away from poultry production for now .it's not profitable cos of the high cost of feed and feed ingredients. Look into other agro enterprises.

Sir, u are beginning to make me seem like his lawyer or his mouth piece.
whereas, it's just my nature not to see wrong and keep quiet, u owe that guy an apology on a level playing field.

he never boasted.
u even did the boasting and not him, that's why he was rude to you by calling u MR. MSC.


wasn't it after your response he said MR. MSC?

But not you have included it as one of his offences, as if he called you that from his first post.

Baba, take am easy.
These are the kinds of things that cause wars in Nigeria.

U are provoking the system by not using the Right order of occurrence of events.

Not Kool.

The guy never boasted or said anything personal against you or anyone here.
Good afternoon all.
Pls I apologies to everyone both my able learned colleague @ excelsiorfarm, shebcy and nairamaniac. Pls let's all abandons this issue . May be I shouldn't have mention my academic experience or I shouldn't have called him names. I take all the blame. but let's know that there is a main focus of this thread and we should not keep diverting the good intention of the thread. This thread is my favourite thread on nairaland so pls we should not ruin it.
Ones again I apologies . I promised not to post on this thread again but I think it all my fault therefore the need to Apologies.
Thank you and have a blessed farming season.

indeed you are humble. Don't distort work that many fish farmers have done here for about a decade.

I only put you in your place on academic, so can't feel pain from an upcoming PhD student �. As long as the people benefit I am okay, my posts are here, to even say I can't beat it? Congratulations �. It's clearly seen from the beginning of the thread.
Very right u are . u can't bit . I learn this work from old ,young ,illiterate and literate and am still learning ,so sir, u are far from bittin it. Even though we are all a subject of imperfection and can only learn help from each other and to each other.
I never condemned r expertise everyone is good on his own but u trying to talk others down ....u are far from it and still maintain my stand that most of r professors can not hatch a common fish ,how then can they train graduate on how to do that .Education is over emphasized in Africa,that's the base line
If I steps on toes then again my apologies and I apologies to everyone for distorting with thread. I promise it will be my last post ever on this thread so no need wasting r time replying.

Having a PhD doesn't make you good. Always know that. I have been in education conferences to know that. Also know that those that have the resources to complete a master can successfully finish a PhD.

So my brother, don't let your PhD make you feel too much please. My younger brother is a PhD lecturer(not even a candidate & not even recent doctor) in the 2nd best university and my Juniors are professors(also my younger brother Juniors too), so don't let I am a PhD student make you think you know better than ANYONE here on this forum.

There are many things you don't know, but thinking because you are doing PhD that you are an authority, if you like don't have 3-5 publication from your PhD and then you will know you achieved nothing afterwards.

I wish you the best in your PhD, because of people like you I will do PhD and give hope to people that it's not impossible.
I have been doing that, hence decided to just read and know more.

I am a master student to the Glory of God with over 4.6/5 at master level, aside thesis. But for strike, my thesis would have been completed. And I am not studying in North also.

Be humble please. PhD only are authority in their fields.

PhD is about building character too, if you like don't be humble and see how you can fare. Anyone that can do master program under good supervisor and have funds will do a PhD successfully

All the best
All what u just wrote here has no correlation with the topic of discussion. Pls go back to the topic line on how Nigerian educational system has no influence on the practical expertise in the real world and have almost no relation with r level of success outside the school, then I will give u the due response but for now u r out of line my able colleague. I mentioned my academic level only to make u understand I am still into the system not for u to take it personal. if it so pain u then my apologies. Go through my posts i have help a lot suggest real life practical solution to their catfish problems that was because of my humility. u can't bit it Mr. Msc

the importance of education is great, it will help your conduct yourself, it help build how one relate in a larger society, it could build meaningful friendship for your future etc.

About the area of performance, it will help your cognitive in terms of reasoning, it helps you solve things or give solution by what you learn, though most theory.

If indeed you want to be great in your field, get skilled from illiterates in your field. I have seen graduate engineers learn from welders, mechanics. The young man that taught me hatchery in fish farming was a graduate of business administration, whereas the learner is an agronomy graduate that have seen a lot in agric even on the field.

Educatn is great. And we get educated from both formal and informal sections
I already typed a lot but I realized r write-up is not worth it . Pls everyone reading this post should look into the society that we live in and tell me the essence of staying 5yrs in Universities when as an engineer u can not remove plug from an engine ,and a graduate of fishery u don't know what quanaldine is used for or what is karkaban and a six month apprenticee will separate complete engine or hatch fish then manage them up to table size that's the difference between been fed with theories and actual practicing
And some one is written that u go to university so u can conduct rself and to think and solve problems . I laugh u . What u don't know ,u don't know forget about that r 100 page notebook at r 500 level. U are actually talking to a PhD student of ATBU.Agro Economics

let us not put blame on the lecturers, at times the system does not help them to do something. Also they cannot work outside their curriculum.

Personally I asked at least one of the lecturer that the teaching over two to three decades does not differ from what is obtainable now and he said there are many talented lecturers, but the political will is not there. Their salaries cannot be used to give unique teaching styles because they have to continue to write papers and it's not always cheap
then what is the essence of the education,if one can Not b practically sound in his own field.

I never said I read Fisheries .
sorry I sounded strong on r post . just that I hate those years I spent in the university with those expired professors killing one with expired theories. Everything I know today in aquaculture,I paid in 50s of thousands to know them far beyond the practical scope or curriculum of those Universities.

Some People think Fish Farming is an easy DIY thing....

I sometimes wonder is they ever wonder why people study Fisheries as a 5 year Degree Program in the Universities.
Nonsense talk. What Did they teach u there . Even r professors do they know how to hatch practically other than those stupid theories they are killing u people with.

Pls my catfishes (two of them)wants to die and their skin is peeling, what can i do to stop them from dying?
have u been changing their water regularly? if yes check the acidity of the water, if it's lower than 6.5 or even 7 then lime the water , if the acidity is good 6.5-8.5 then salt bath them or add TTCM and AMCL pinch in their water for treatment or combine the two treatment withdraw feed from them for about 3 days then watch r management practices. Hope it will be helpful .
