boss man, how often do u change water sir? and also how do you prevent the nets from entering the water Kaykaymil: |

I dont change the water we run a flow through system fresh water flows in and stale water comes out from the pipe on the other end. In order to prevent the nets there is a twine You run from peg to peg. The net relaxes upon this twine which makes it stronger for it to catch birds and frogs that jump on it without sinking. miqos02: |

As a fish farmer too, I am interested in the progress but would love to see pictures, as pictures talks just as much. Even the OP responded positively.. I really don't understand how it is your business or who you are in the first place... please just excuse me.. 2 Likes |

Okay the advantages of Using earthen ponds are as follows; 1. They are cheap to construct. 2. They reduce operational cost as You do not need a borehole during the rainy season as the water comes out naturally from the ground. 3. There is this myth, Buyers prefer fishes from earthen pond as they say they are more tasty than the concrete pond. 4. You do need a generator when running earthen pond which reduces cost of production as a result of not digging a borehole which reduces the cost of operation like literarily imagine buyin 10 ltres every two days. However the advantages does not mean it dosent have it down side like; 1. Sorting Your fishes to various size is like hell. 2. Its easy for predators like snake and frog to attack. 3. Managing diseases is very hard if not done by an experince hand. 4. You cant stock fishes from fingerling stage only juveniles otherwise the mortality rate would be high. 5. Sharp changes in PH level. etc lanre2009: 1 Like |

I bought some feeds on friday about 30 Bags of 4MM aquamax which would last them for about two weeks for those thinking that there have not been challenges meen there are alot let me list them: 1. Sometimes we have issues with Land grabbers who would come with falsified documents to claim that some part of Your land falls into theirs thank God for the fence and the people of the community we are able to wade them off. 2. During very heavy rains the flood sometimes wash sand back into the pond and we have to clear the sand back out. Some of the Pond collapsed and we have to buy wood to basically hold it from crashing in. 3. Negligence of staff: they sometimes do not pay attention to detail like taking stock and when feeding alot does wasted the hit the ground and I have to supervise them every weekend to ensure they are going with the operational plan. 1 Like

Op ur doing great but a have a little advice for u in case of next time Instead of using aqua max pls try top fish feed The price difference is not more than 300 naira but check there protein content at this stage of ur fish growth they need more protein to shoot and with aqua max u can't get that type of result When u want to sell and u scale ur fish u will understand the magic of profit margin if the cost will be too much then reduce the quantity so that after sales u will smile If doubt me after sales quote me and proof me wrong That's my little contribution Kaykaymil: 1 Like |

I was at Kaykaymill farm in Abuja on Sunday and i instantly fell in love with earthen pond. His approach to his farm has been amazing and after listening to him for sometime i fond in him someone who knows his onions. He planned his business, from location of farm to construction to stocking and to choosing staff. The fish are very strong and healthy with equal growth. They are already at melange in less than 2months and it is certain they will attain very reasonable weight in 4 to 5 months. Congrats for your courage and zeal and thanks for the entertainment. 4 Likes 1 Share |
