Ttalk:thanks for ur advice. However, I don't wanna waste more money on something that may not work. This ur suggestion seems so logical and correct. But Are u 100% sure that this solution will work? Cos The way I see the persistent cracks, it seems to me to be a foundation issue. screeding and all is not cheap. Pls are u really sure it is the best way to go? By the way, I am in owerri. Will post a pic the next time I visit the farm. Probably this week. |

Catfish farmers in the house pls I need your inputs. The person supplying me juveniles told me I won't need to sort, cos from that size the difference in their sizes will not be so much to the extent that they'll eat one another. How true is that? |

obstead200: Bro, i understand how you feel and i want to tell you that unless you employ expert to construct pond for you there will always be cracks and even experts still experience one form of cracks and the other and the best way to go about it is not by sewing tarpaulin inside pond rather it is through screeding using cement, waterproof cement and screeding chemical which worth its cost at the long run. Most of these mistakes could have been avoided if you had supervised your pond construction yourself from foundation up to the final stage. For better understanding, visit farm with concrete ponds around your area, goggle pond construction from youtube and read how to construct pond and you will have enough knowledge to supervise and be able to make minor repairs on your ponds |

Businesstools: You do not sort only because of cannibalism you sort because fish dont grow at the same pace in fact sorting is as important as feeding, seed and water management which will enhance your profit at the end of the day. 1. Sorting brings about balance competition among sorted fish thereby ensuring even growth 2. It will make you feed your fish according to the sizes of fishes while big fish eat big feed and small eat small feed 3. It will make you manage your feed by feeding protein rich feed to boost the growth of the smaller fish 4. Sorting will enable you to apply feed supplements/multivitamins to the smaller fish to enhance their feeding habit 5. Sorting will make it easier to calculate your FCR, and know the overall wellness of your fish 1 Like |

mozek24: Welcome back and sorry to hear about your loss..... There is nothing wrong to diversify but always good to master one aspect first and really well then add a other to the original one it not to dump it. Fish business surely missed you. |

miqos02:absolutely correct... because since the launch of Gelatin feed, the tempo of this wonderful thread has seriously slowed down. |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by ajoo17(m): 12:35pm On Mar 03, 2016 |
I think it will be a good ideal if d gelatin feed can go to another group especially d marketing aspect of it. Or it will make mess of the group with time. It is gelatin feed today, another may come tomorrow. My advice.... |

Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by robonski15(m): 6:36pm On Mar 03, 2016 |
mozek24: Oga mozek welcome back to the world of fish farming its a pity you burnt your finger in poultry business. I once tried poultry at some point though in a small scale(broilers) mehn it was not easy oo , vaccines upon vaccines i couldn't cope anymore.. But every business has its own risk be it fish or poultry. People still make money in poultry and some fish farmers also make a loss, it all boils down to your technical know-how and sometimes "Good hands" in a business.. Its a bitter experience for you but its time to move on to your first love "fish farming".. |
