practicalclass: Location is one of the things to think of before you can determine the kind of fish to supply a pepper soup joint. For example, at IJ where I am, it is between 600 to 800grams but in lag it is between 800grams to 1.2KG depending on the area in lagos. The pepper soup joint owner are the end buyer, the price will invariably rise since they themselves buy from the market women at a high price. So, I expect you to make a very good profit. |

jonyse: what is NCO[sup][/sup][sub][/sub] It is a name for a drug used in treating fish. It is a combination of three drugs; Oxy, tetracycline and one other drugs like that(forgotten). But there is no meaning to the term NCO You can use oxy if u don't see NCO. |

NB: Catfish farmers and/or intending or aspiring farmers, for the record sake, please do not change feed from one product to another product. It is a very wrong move. It is as if u r giving ur baby NAN 1 and u now change to SMA gold or Peak 123. What do u think will happen to ur baby? If u want to use ziegler, use ziegler. If it is coppens, use coppens. If it is multifeed use it. Do not deviate from one to another. It is wrong and it can lead to a disease outbreak. The above is a first class information. I have observed it over time. 1 Like |

@tokugawa,in addition to d solution given, the precaution u should take to avoid future occurence is to manage d pond environment well,grasses should be remove or sprayed with potassium permanganate. u have to be careful on feeding livefoods to your fishes if u do,try to creat avenue for fresh water to come in. d salt will help d wormlike agents to loose their grip,tetracyline is to assist to heal,u can get parasites medicine for fishes from an agric store |

robonski16: Hello good people am sure you guys a doing great..Am on my way from owerri to P.H to consult for a farm... I am really fagged out but the lord has kept me going all this while..Safe journey...the Lord is ur strength Can you give me the average weight of a catfish from the 1st month of hatching, 2nd (juvenile), 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th,7th months. This is to determine d quantity of feeds to give them on daily basis by giving them 10% of body weight (or what do you have to say on the quantity of feeds to avoid over nd under feeding nd also maximise profit. Some even say 3-5% of body weight) |

ayoola190: Make sure u wash your pond two weeks after stocking otherwise be expecting wide range attack. You can stop washing when u switch over to local feeds but make sure u always put floxinor in their feeds to avoid illness. 1 Like |
