if they are actually fingerlings from when u brought them, buy now u can use 1.8mm skretting (durante) as chilamfarms suggested, but if u can't get that, use coppen 1.5mm. As regards changing feed sizes pls provide d house details such as number of fingerlings stored and also what u intend to harvest e.g table size or melange. Otherwise, u proceede in this order 1.5mm, 2mm, 3mm, 4mm, 6mm and 8mm. Nb: some feeds don't have 3mm and 8mm e.g skretting (sinking) for this type u can finish with 6mm. I hope this helps. Regards.

Pumppie/chilafarm, am grateful for your prompt response. Ok let me give a quick run down of the farm. I stocked 750 post fries per say though the farmer sold them to me as fingerlings cos they weighed 1.2g and less at the initially time of stocking. I want to raise to table size. Am giving 0.5mm coppens for now.

regarding the melange model, i think durante sinking can be used instead of the vital feeds.just asking.

Hello all, sorry for the delay as I am not in any way keeping us in suspense. Please let me say that what I am about to reveal is not something unusual and not a top secret, and like I said we can modify and improve on it. It’s just a template of some sort. Please also note that prices of feeds have changed since the last time this model was used. And harvest time was 2 months and 3 days. Some schools of thought, are of the opinion that you must hatch before you can make it big in mélange farming, this is not always the case. Cos truth is we cannot all hatch, even though hatching will definitely save u some cash but it also comes at a cost (N). Just ensure you get your fingerlings from a reputable breeder and pay attention to quality issue. What I’m presenting to u was achieved by a client last month.
Before I proceed let me shed light on some obstacles to attaining this target.

1. Low quality fingerlings: Please and please MAKE SURE ur fingerlings are of very FINE QUALITY and must be picking 1.5MM conveniently.
2. Apply the recommended mélange spacing ( don’t over stock a particular pond)
3. Don’t under feed: though there are recommended feeding schedule based on body weight, I feed to satiation but avoid wastage. Feed twice in a day and avoid feeding late at night.
4. Effectively use multivitamins: I use aqua pro and livstovit.
5. Effective water management.

COST
1. Fingerlings @ N10 x 6000 N60,000
2. 1.5mm coppen @ N4000 x 3 N12,000
3. 2mm Durante(scretting) @ N5,550 x 8 N 44,000
4. 3mm coppen @ N6000 x 8 N48,000
5. 4mm Vital feed @ N4,250 x 48 N204,000
6. Aqua pro @ N350 x 2 N700
7. Livstovit @ N500 x 1 N500

TOTAL COST: N369, 200

Total Kg (after 2 months plus): 1920kg

N;B (1) mélange is sold in bowls(bafs) usually containing 30kg/bowl for this cycle, 64bowls were obtained.

;B (2) : he sold @450/kg, thus total sales was N864,000.
Gross profit: N864, 000 – N369, 200 = N494, 800 (excluding miscellaneous)

N:B (3): I don’t use vital, I use durante (sktretting) (4MM ) but I suggested vital to him for convenience sake cos it floats unlike durante which requires spot feeding and patience to use.

N:B (4): you should target an average 300g to make profit, however you will find out that a reasonable number will even attain 400/ 500g.

N:B (5): I normally sell at N430/kg, but he was able to sell at 450/kg which I think we should all insist on selling now (feeds and cost of running this business is quite higher now).

I am currently trying out alla aqua (3mm) at the moment cos coppen has increased drastically. Will update when the cycle is complete. Please if there are areas to be elaborated on I will be willing to, regards.

thanks
....but my question concerning ur model is this....did I actually use 48 bag of durante sinking.....or u just gave d equivalent of 48 ahs frrm durante....s durante is 25kg while vital is 15kg...

I need u to be clear sir, guess some typo is the cause tho, I never mentioned anything about 48bags of durante sir, I only said I personally use durante, But advised the client to use vital. Durante Equivalent of the model is 29bags. Hope u get?

Trudy12:

Yes u can use durante sinking. It’s even cheaper than vital, and as long as u can handle using it, ba wahala.

Hello sir, I think the confusion here is that we don’t seem to know exactly what u stocked. Post fries are different from fingerlings. If what u stocked are post fries, then u can feed in this order; 0.5mm -0.8mm, 0.8mm-1.2mm and finally 1.5mm. Hope this helps?

yes i mentioned 48 bags of 4mm vital feed @ 4,250 per one. total= N204,000. n;b the rate (4,250) was a discount rate cos bulk purchase was made. currently, almost all feeds have increased prices but i'm sure u will get some discount if u buy in bulk. regards

age? scars/bruises/patches? Just Treat with antibiotic & evaluate d following; do you overfeed(you can pollute your water even in a day) , do u let out all the water & allow your fishes rub or their body on bare surface/against themselves without water or is your pond having a cummulation of excessive slime that could trigger infection. it is not only number of days u change water that determines good water mgt

House please help, I stocked 1060 juvenille in an earthen pond, at 2 weeks of stocking I started having casualties. My tutor said the water was polluted from other ponds since they are channelled to each other. I pumped out the water and treated with some antiboitics and salt and also blocked the channels to other ponds and things were fine. Now, my fishes will be 5 weeks old in 3 days and 2 days ago I started having casualties again. Today is the third day and I have counted 26 fishes. When it started again I bought Oxytetracycline and mixed with their feed as well as sprinking salt on the water but casualty has not stopped. Today I noticed the dead fishes had swollen chest when I removed them from the pond. My tutor does not have time for now. My fishes are dieing and the cost attached to pumping out of water is about 3500 aside treatment please I need urgent help

Good Day Sirs,Mas

With Technologies & Ideas from India, Vietnam, Thailand, China and Nigeria our farm boast a monthly production capacity of about 500,000 or more fingerlings production as of now.
The fries are produced from a selection of hi breed and well taken care 3 to 5 years old Brood stocks. A well balanced diet is followed in taking good care of these parent fishes in which they are fed on high quality proteins for optimal & fertile egg development, B-glucans to support the immunity system, Extra Vitamins C and E to improve the general status and fertility, powerful mix of anti-oxydant and astaxanthin which make sure that the eggs produced are of a very high quality, sustainable and the fries produced would be grown at a greater speed with weight, body & immunity.
Our fingerlings at week 7 to 8 have an ideal size of about 3cm to 5cm weighing about 3 grams to 5 grams, These fingerlings when ready to be moved out of our farm are technically graded and sorted which gives them a uniformity to reach direct to table size level without being sorted or graded again, We have experienced farmers and specialist from India and Nigeria who take care of the well-nourished and nutritional diet of these fingerlings from day 1 of hatching.
