oscarvicto: The tank shown in the picture is a ground reservoir. It is attached to another tank which stores about 2,000 liters of water from the hatchery. The multiple pipes are inlets an outlets used to control the flow if water to the grow space and back into the hatchery. The blue tubes are for aeration. Dissolved Oxygen is important for plants too. Otherwise we get root rot. I placed styrofoam on the tank cos it was just empty space doing nothing which now has 40 heads of lettuce. Compared to a field I would need much more space. So in real terms there are no equipment in the tank... Hope this helps. |

Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by chidarl85: 12:28am On Mar 07, 2016 |
Hello everyone, please I would appreciate any and every advise on building a concrete pond for catfish. I have plans for six 10ft (L) x 6ft (W) x 4ft (D) dimension pond. What do you suggest I do to avoid any mistakes? How many fish can be stocked in this pond size from fingerling to maturity for optimal growth? Is it advisable to put tiles in the pond walls after plastering? How soon after building the pond can I stock? How much water should I have in the pond for the required amount of fish? Please any help and advise at all will be greatly appreciated. Thanks! |

abdulumar:Good day AbdulUmar,please I need some clarification from you,in your system set up,the water in the white tank is it direct from the biofilter or from the outlet of the fish tanks?Which type of biofilter are you using? Is it the imported one or the local assemble one?If it's the locally assemble one,which biofiltrating media did you used? |
