Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by ayosat(m): 8:38am On May 05, 2015 |
gregswagzz:you don't need any formalin. It is a new pond. All you need do is to fill up that pond with water and put chicken poo (tie in a sack) drop it in the pond for two weeks. This will neutralize all the cement chemicals. After remove the sack, drain the water, wash thoroughly and put new fresh water and stock your fingerlings. |

How Farmers Can Make More Money in Catfish Farming: Part 1 level of success we get in catfish farming is usually tied to the level of management practices we decide to put in place in conjuction with the level of efficiency we achieve from our culture systems, writes Lanre Ogunsina, Fish Unlimited in Part 1. During the 2014 fish farming season, two farmer friends of mine in Nigeria stocked their earthen ponds with African catfish seeds Their ponds had water supplied from an adjacent, perenial, gentle river whose water quality parameters were suitable for fish farming. Farmer A's pond had a dimension of 20m X 7m X 1.4m Farmer B's pond had a dimension of 24m X 5m X 1.5m. Farmer A stocked 2500 juveniles and Farmer B stocked 2500 juveniles on Saturday, 29 March, 2014 Read up part 1 and 2 on www.agricnetwork.com |

good day, my ogas in the house...may God continue to help u more, as u are using this medium to help newbies and intending farmers... please i need guide on how to feed with local feed without overfeeding and to avoid water pollution... i'm using tarpaulin pond.... |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by ayosat(m): 12:27pm On May 06, 2015 |
jaz:2000 seed is way too much for the size you have. What you have can only take 1000. For you to have 2000 seed to table size then you need to construct pond twice the capacity you mentioned. For them to grow well you need to stock wisely. |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Belexy(m): 1:07pm On May 06, 2015 |
jaz: ayosat: My oga has said it all. #ur pond can take up to a thousand but u need extra care and experience. If i am the one with your pond, i will only put 800 fishes in it. Do it and thank me later #i use 22 × 8 ×3.5ft ponds and i put between 700 and 800 in them. #as fingerlings u can put way much more than 2000 in dat pond.... The problem will arise when they start getting bigger and over-crowded. |
