godwinufi68:Thanks for the response, the juvenile you bought is it 4 inches? Or kindly specify the length in inches. My questions are; what is the name of feed you gave to them within the 2 weeks? when do you change their water? what were the things you did.? How many times do you feed them? Cause I feel juveniles after two weeks should be few inches slightly above Jumbo size. Thanks again for the prompt response. |

i want to know the feasibility of using a bio sand filter to replace the bio filter considering that a bio sand filter is very slow and the fact that the biofilter needs to b on a 24hr working cycle to keep the bacteria alive which is quite expensive |

excelsiorfarm:i have a philosophy to business, cash & carry,also do not be carried away in the course of business because the man that pays you for 2-3-4-5 months could decide to spring surprises by not paying,so that you dont suffer losses, get payment. 100%.provided you too dont intend to default |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by godwinufi68(m): 8:39pm On Jul 19, 2016 |
dayborlar:gudevenin sir, they where 7 inches, i gave them coppens 2mm, i change their water when its due like 2-3 days, u can even change ur water after 1 days cos ur water can get polluted due to overfeeding...... That is y we are advice not to over feed our fishes because frequent changing of water streeses the fish also i feed them twice a day(9:00am-5:00pm) to satiation. Note: on the day of their arriver i gave them anti-strees and after 1 week i mix booster/vitamin-c to their feeds cos i notice some hav broken skull. My broda that was all i did, i hop i answer all ur questions also feel free 2 ask on any area u don't understand thank U sir and God bless. Below is @ 1 month and 6days.

robonski15:sir pls can u tell us about accommodation, feeding, transportation and SALARY. Tnks and God bless |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by excelsiorfarm(m): 9:21pm On Jul 19, 2016 |
donnaheff:there are also solar biofilter. If your sand filteration could supply clear,unpolluted water like in case of some aquaponics, also provided the slowness in filteration does not inhibit aeration,it is worth trying,though i would suggest that either you do the solar or visit durantee for biofilter component(if they still have),then create a cruel method of filteration. In whatever filteration, we should know oxygen is key & removal of ammonia. |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by excelsiorfarm(m): 9:31pm On Jul 19, 2016 |
godwinufi68:Op said experienced fish farmer,he cannot offer anything less than 100k in PH with other benefit for such farm (10,000-20,000) |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by excelsiorfarm(m): 9:39pm On Jul 19, 2016 |
godwinufi68:next time,dont buy fishes with broken skull. I could have said that dont buy fishes from a breeder that could sell such,but so not to be fighting unknown battle(Laugh).Dont mind my phone,but is this fish looking healthy? how many weeks did your breeder claim the fishes truely are? |

Hello Everyone, As a benefactor of diverse info from this thread. I would like to make my little contribution to everyone. I am privileged to know that the Dollar price is going higher, and CBN has withdrawn their set Exchange limit. The implication is that the Dollar has been deregulated - even though the word is highly placed at the back seat due to the sentiments attached to the word deregulation. News has also been going round regarding the challenge of oil marketers is purchasing refined oil due to the high exchange rate. Black market rate has soared from N340(about a month ago) to N374 (today). The "likely" outcome of a floating Dollar to farmer is that the prices of imported feeds are going to rise, petrol is also likely to be affected. Much more is that cash in the bank is gradually devaluing, as N50,000 for 10bags after another price hike will not be able to purchase d same qty of feed. Rather than buy feeds in bits, i advice to purchase more into storage. While am not sure how this gradual Dollar price increase will take its toll as it head to N300/Usd frm N283/Usd btw banks, we can take positions now to convert our cash to needed commodities b4 it hits our needed commodities. 1 Like |
