I stocked up my earthen pond with 2100pieces of healthy fingerlings, for the past four weeks they've been doing fine only to get there on Monday morning i find about 30 pieces dead and after I drained the water I treated them with salt and ashes which I used to use but it didn't stop. I have recorded over 1500 death. Prior to that time I used injection powder that someone introduced to me when I saw that they were not active. But whole thing started 3 days after I used the injection powder.plz anyone with an idea that can help. |

Oyinchristianah:what do you noticed in them? Swollen stomach or body peeling etc? Hope you don't continue feeding them when they were dropping? |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Barristertemmie(f): 11:54am On Apr 04, 2018 |
Can someone help me with an estimate of the quantity of feed to rear 20000 juvenile to maturity. Please it's very important!! |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Oyinchristianah: 4:18pm On Apr 04, 2018 |
No sign except that they suddenly became not very active. That's all. |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Oyinchristianah: 4:21pm On Apr 04, 2018 |
I've stopped feeding them since 3days ago. |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Afnahfarms(m): 4:34pm On Apr 04, 2018 |
Oyinchristianah:Okay. Buy floxinor mix it with 10 litres of water and sprinkle it to their water in the pond, drain the water the follow day and replace with a fresh one. Anytime the mortality is getting very high floxinor is very active if it's a bacteria not body peeling. I guess injection powder you used initially should be procain pellicilin it is very strong antibioics. We need to treat what actually the problem. Good luck! |

NCFarms:. Theirs a professional way of packaging female broodstock for a long journey that won't affect them. But I still advice my clients not to use them immediately, give the a week to acclimatize and also disinfect them. Yes we have gravid females in ibadan ... and we do send to Abuja markudi.lafia n it's environs... 1 Like |

ubreeze:if 5000 juveniles eat 150bags u can't have 650g. 150bags= 2250kg of feed, divide it among 5000 juveniles of say 10g body weight. Wat u will have is. 450kg max. The price they r buying is low if u r gonna make any profit @ all. Then seed price is on the higher side too max juveniles should be #25. If u wana do melange (3months) target u need to stock higher... on 10000 juveniles book @ least 3.2toons of feed and u will have them weighing 300-350g per fish... 1 Like 1 Share |

novexme:aerator is not the solution.... pls wenever ur fries are @ 2 going to 3weeks be very vigilant, this is a common phenomenon and it's cos @ this period along of their organs are coming up n this use up a lot of oxygen in that water body. Apply chicken oil or palm oil on the water and ensure they r less crowded. |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by chilanfarms(m): 6:53am On Apr 05, 2018 |
novexme:u don't need aerator that early rather ensure flow through @ low pressure. |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Afnahfarms(m): 11:27am On Apr 05, 2018 |
chilanfarms:Oga Chilan. Oil on the surface of water! Won't that block the entry of oxygen into the water? I m still learning. |
