Please house, what is the maximum number of fingerling to stock in a plot of land 100×50 ft or 30.5×15meters? Secondly, what is the average cost of the feeding for 10000 adult fishes? I intend to start up in a large quantity.

Depends on the number of pond u want to build. As a newbie start small so u can learn the trade. 10,000 fishes will require about 4 million plus to feed to maturity.

Thanks Bro. But can a plot with that dimension contain up to 10000? I am not in the country so my sister can enrol on a training to manage it and I also intend to hire a supervising consultant.

boss man, u too should enroll for a training on " how to invest in agriculture without loosing from Abroad" to avoid stories that touch. u must be sure those you intend to employ have the passion for this business.

Thanks but your comment is funny and at the same time educative. I never said I don't want to lose even though nobody goes into business with the mindset to lose but losing is an integral part of success. My question is on how to maximise the plot, the risk of over stocking and the average cost.
Thanks for the last sentence.

Pls, What is an ideal stocking density (stocking rate) for a concrete pond for catfish?

Also, do I need to lime a concrete pond after construction before stocking?

Thanks Bro.

Please what pumping machine can I use for my 24hrs biofilter cos I was informed by my plumber that the current surface pump i am using cannot work round the clock
The choice of pumping machine depends on your targeted flow rate of water and source of power.For anyone using water recycling system,it is always recommended to have minimum of two pumping machines so that you can always alternate.

You can use so many binding agents such as aqua ll, tapiocca, cassava starch/flour, corn flour molasis and other starchy stuff but gelatinity depends on preparation.
Baker's yeast can be use as floating agent. The problem is in cost/quantity implication.
Contact goldgate2003@yahoo.com for advice on floating feed

Thanks for the detailed answer. You are right about the yeast due to high cost thereby limiting its use. Anyway I will contact you via email. Thanks once again.
