abdulumar:find attached their price as written down for me. Their phone no is on the paper. I also insisted the exact guy i.met in d shop gives me his no. His no is 07063779397. Please, if you want to buy, start small. u can buy one to confirm its the same quality as d one you want. You know am nt experienced, so i cant recognise or tell d quality when i see one. You can as well wait so that i get the phone no of the importers that have account with us. That way, you can compare prices as i only went to one shop the day i went to d line.

Belexy:majority of the hatchers lie a whole lot about age and co, this debate has been ongoing for a long period of time. How can all fishes in six weeks suddenly becomes fingerlings, its only the gullible buyers that will believe such info. At least at the 8th week and above they are ripe enough to be called fingerlings that can pick 2mm without hassles. U cannot get a standard juvenile that will pick 3mm at the 7th week, haba!!! at the 12th week from hatchery all the fishes should be ready to be sold as juvenile.. |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by robonski15(m): 3:04pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
Johnnyessence:bro johneey, as long as u buy juvenile and they cant pick 3mm they are not juvenile, rather fingerlings. that means u just bought fingerlings as juvenile at a high cost... Be wise brotherly. |

pls who is into smokefish here, how is the market? |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by excelsiorfarm(m): 10:58pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
noblefarm:am not into it ,but great, how i do i know? I know at least four people doing it, one where i buy my feeds, another d major supplier of raanan feeds in ibadan apata, love fisheries also & an elderly farmer that buys 100 kg at a time for smoking, returns btw 60- 100 % of investment in profit, how do i know? I ask lots of questions, pretend to be new in agric things so as to know more, but they should be well dried(not burnt), decent package, not necessary to be expensive, get outlets to receive for market or create one |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by noblefarm: 11:06pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
excelsiorfarm: pls do u know abt the processing machine, gas or electric and how much it cost |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by excelsiorfarm(m): 11:40pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
noblefarm:all fabricated, dont know d makers, firro use to sale , also i heard of school of fishery or oceanography(not sure), price depend on capacity, source of energy, those i mentioned were coal, if it wasn't part of d data loss when nairaland crash, it seems i posted a pic of one of d oven that was fabricated, cost around N150k, though i learnt some well structure & functional ones is as high as N450k, still do your research on d oven personally to suit your vision, sleep well |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by robonski15(m): 1:12am On Mar 15, 2015 |
noblefarm: A guy named retin01 makes smoking kiln at an affordable price. you can contact him.. also go to www.agricnetwork.com and check out some pix he posted. |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Nobody: 8:27am On Mar 15, 2015 |
Johnnyessence: Though i didnt see any pic, can u please tell me the ply size of the net you used. @House, is there any equipment that can assist in clearing and landscaping an earthen pond site? The location is really swampy and d villagers dt a friend told to clear ten plots for him cleared only two plots and escaped. |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Nobody: 8:45am On Mar 15, 2015 |
On the oven , i once posted a locally constructed oven on this thread. The price was btw 50-75k (i cannot remember now.) i recal i posted d size then. The drawback is dt the oven uses gas as fuel. The cost of fuel shld be considered b4 investing in any kind of oven. I dont know which is d cheapest- gas, charcoal, etc. You shld also check d mkt u are supplying. Heard some specialized mkt dont take charcoal smoked fish . I will make more research on smoking when i take off in my farm site. Heard 300grms and below sells faster than others. They have a lot of ppl doing the smoking biz at Ogbaru LGA (a riverine community )Anambra here . I intend to go there myself and see d kind of ovens they use. |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Nobody: 9:00am On Mar 15, 2015 |
is there any disadvantage of using a smaller sized feed for a fish? i bought another 1kg of 1.8mm cos i dont want to run out of feed at anytime as i saw d remaining feed as small. Bt when i checked the remaining feed, it was no as small as i tot. By the time my fish finish the remaining one, they shld be on 2mm. Since ive bought the 1.8mm already, i intend to continue wit it. Is it wrong? Also, sumone shld help wit a pic to identify diff types of fish, holland and dutch. Are their table fish prices different? |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Nobody: 9:07am On Mar 15, 2015 |
