@@gregosuma am an intending catfish farmer setting up Gods grace b4 the forth quarter, and your videos have been a good guide and motivation and looking to always learn and grow from your wealth of experience and information
Good day Mr Greg I am impressed with what you have just said. Please sir I want you to help me with this questions. 1. I want to start fish farming. I have been thinking the side of tapoline that will contain 500 pieces. 2. As a bigginer what size will I buy, I mean do buy fingaline or something bigger than that 3. I noticed that some of this tapoline are 4ft while some are 3ft Asin height does it have any effect. Please sir, still give me name of foreign feed if I will start with fingaline and local feed name when they get to eat up to 2mm.
Thanks in a million. Great content. Awesome. Very well explained. I couldn't find this explanation--simply put anywhere else. Great teachers are hard to find. Grade: A++💥
Thank you Sir for this educative video, please I can see the video was posted 2 years ago considering drastic change in price of things does the analysis of 280,000 naira for 1,000 fish to table size still apply in todays market. If no, please what is the current estimate Sir.
Sir thanks so much with this, but there is something I would want you to explain and how many food or kg of food of consumption daily to ascertain the amount of money to spend. If you don't know the amount of food they eat a day , a week and a month , your explanation won't help. Thanks
Very informative indeed. Thank you. Are you able to advise the recommended stocking densities for each stage (fingerlings, juveniles, table size etc.) of the fish per 1,000 litre tank? I heard you recommend 70 table size pieces for a 1,000 litre. What about when they are in the other stages?
Thanks in a million for your explanation. I want to start, I can say I am lucky to co come across to you, thank you sir. I have few questions to ask as a bigginer: 1. I want to use tapoline. They 4ft height and 3ft height, 4ft is costly for me, so want to ask if there's problem using 3ft. 2. I want to start with 500 pieces what size of tapoline will enter it, I want to go for 8 by 9ft then height 3ft. 3. As a bigginer what stage will you like me to start with, I mean can I start with fingaline 4. The name of foreign feed I will start with. 5. How will I make the tapoline ready to use when I bring it home. Thank you sir, please help me.
Nice video.....my fishes are 4 months now ( 4 thousand fishes) costing too much money to feed them twice a day but scared they will get hungry and eat each other.... Any advice..thanks
thank you so much for this information. i was adviced to feed my catfish twice a day, but i got another advice that it was a bad move, that it should be 3 times. anyway i continued feeding them twice a day. can you suggest a local feed that is good for them? thank you. my catfish is 4 months now.
Thank you sir for the knowledge Sir, please sir I have a question. 1) in my area Kaduna the different between blue crown 4mm and eco float 4mm is #1200 and my fish's will be 4months on 2nd November, should I maintain the blue crown? Or shift to the eco,weight gaining is my target. 2) sir spacing is another challenging I have 6ftby 4fit tapoline how many fishes can it take to table size?..
You can comfortably change to Eco now, though growth will be slightly affected, but it'll be okay. I put 200 to table size in 6*4 tanks, it's your call what you'll like to do.
No I can't, because I can't be precise due to lots of issues while feeding. But it's better to keep the funds you'll need to breed your fishes to table size, aside.
Good job sir. I am listen u from Burkina and i would like u to talk about tilapia too.... which is the best feed.....that's what i am farming.... thank u
Thanks Sir , i am still waiting for a video about hatchery necessary things and feed we need to do hatchery, i really want to fish farm but we dont have hatchery in my town . I am from guinee conakry
Sir, Thank you for the video. Average cost of good local feed is now about N400- N500 per Kg. How can one raise 1000 fingerlings to table size (1kg) with N300,000. Please can you shed more light. Thank you.
Mr. Greg, I must say your informations have been very helpful for skeptics like me. My name is Martins a keen follower of ur channel posting for the first-time ,I am intending on using tarpaulin tanks for production. I would be happy if you put me through the steps involved in stocking with a tarpaulin tank. Are they similar to those involved in concrete and earthen ponds? What is your source of water pls, can I use borehole? Thanks in anticipation.
I will tell you exactly what I do in my farm. I use borehole water directly, new tarpaulin tanks are thoroughly washed with salt, left empty for a day, filled with water the next day, then I stock. After harvest I prepare my tanks again with salt and stock.
My dear friend I might not be able to make accurate suggestions on how to start in your area because I don't know your terrain. However I will advice that you watch my videos diligently for some guide
@@gregosuma many thanks for your response. I will keep on watching the vedioes. I have to start this business with full understand of the basic issues at any cost .
@@gregosuma I am really happy to hear and to know that you are doing well, which makes me happy, I miss your teachings a lot. Your number one fan from Ghana.
Good evening sir, which mm should I feed my fish on 4months before I sell them. It will enter 4 months by next week . And I want to harvest it in two weeks time
Mr. Greg, thank you for your highly informative videos. Where are you based? Would you be available to assist in setting up this facility in an NGO establishment in Ogun State.?
Like u always say,ur techniques are not cast on Mable...I beg to disagree with that estimate as the price of feed is too expensive! It takes a minimum of 65 bags to raise a thousand fish,let's average a bag to be #7,450 that's for local feed,it gives #485,250 excluding the cost of purchase of fish and running of borehole for the farm...mine isn't cast on Mable either.good job sir
Good day sir. Please I have a few questions: Is it necessary to plant aquatic plants inside the fish tank for more oxygen? Also, how many table size fish can be contained in the white water tank that is caged round with rods? Thanks so much sir
Sir, I have learnt that fish production is about Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR). Someone said 1:1 is commendable while someone told me he records 0.8: 1. What is your take sir?
@@gregosuma Good morning Sir, thank you for the fast reply. Please sir, can you explain more on aerating system because you don't apply the Air pump and still achieved good result from start to finish. God bless you for good works.
@@gregosuma this is an intelligent answer sir. Am so pleased! I wish I could subscribe on your channel more than once!! Because you have saved me from a n irreparable loss!!!
@@gregosuma Thanks a lot sir.. I was also asking if feeding the fishes in the morning before changing the water is bad or if it is necessary to always to change the water in the morning before feeding them.. Someone answered the question in the comment section but I do not trust the information as it was not coming from you sir
@@gregosuma yes sir five of it is good for me. Im starting new.after seeing your video's online i came to like the business as you explain it. So pls sir the five of the tanks with the stand i mean the legs everything will be how much .and if i pay you how will it get to me. Sir i hope you will give me better price cos I'm starting new pls. Thanks
@@amyymama1575 Do you stay in Rivers State? If not. Are you sure such tarpaulin tanks are not made in your area? If you buy around were you stay, it will save cost.
