Thank you boss for another wonderful video, you really make difficult work seems so easy, I am really blessed to have you as my mentor.,I pray for your success because the more you succeed the more I benefit from you.,like always your number one fan from Ghana.
Gd evening sir, I luckily come across your utube on catfish farming and I must say it has been a wonderful and amazing experience. Thank u so much for the good work. Ur programs have been so informative. I have pls a question becos I am also very new in the Business. How do u count ur fishes to be sure they are complete according to your orders be these fishes are very small for good record purposes.
I can't recount if I order because of the number, so I deal with someone I trust, but during harvest I count and compare the number I get minus mortality, it's always accurate with what I ordered. Other I times I just stock from my hatchery.
Thank you very much for this beautiful information. I've been Inpatiently waiting for when you will make a video on changing pond water. I stocked about 500 juvenile fishes in a 10ft x 9ft close system pond. I usually change their water every 2 days. However I have 2 questions 1. Do I need to drain the pond completely before adding fresh water. I saw somewhere that only about 20% of the water should be drained before adding fresh water. 2. Must all the fishes excreta be flushed out before adding new fresh water. It's usually hectic trying to get all the excreta flushed out
Thank you Mr Greg. Your mentorship is so great and loaded.. Me am in Zambia and am planning to farm tilapia in concrete ponds. Can it be the same system for draining of water and filling it in a pond with 50,000 litr capacity.. Or what can you advise in such a situation best module to undertake.. Thanking you in advance
I do tilapia in a very small scale, I won't be able to advice on such. But for the little quantity I have, I change their water every week and they're doing quite well.
Nice one Mr Greg...I want to ask she changing the water should we dry all the water?. Or should we leave a very small quantity of water in the pond?. Bcos some say we should dry just half of the water and refill...
Mr Greg. You have awesome content! If you need to change water everyday, you need a constant low cost or free water like a well, do you have wells and what capacity. Also what happens to all the waste water?
Thanks for your videos. Please, I will you to talk about quantity of water per each size of of pond. And what is the quantity of fish to stock per each size of pond. Thanks
Thank you for your very instructive series. In changing water, do you completely drain the whole water in the tarpaulin before pumping new round of fresh water? Or would it suffice if it is drained halfway? Thank you for your timely response.
You can drain your water completely, but it has to be done slowly, especially if the fingerlings are still about 4 weeks old and then you refill slowly also.
@@gregosuma Can you do a video of the feed, the type and amount, you feed at each stage from right after yolk sack absorption to stocking in grow-out tanks? Thanks for the informative videos
Great lecture sir, please sir can you enlighten me how using better leaf water to treat catfish or the tank. I heard that from someone I don't know how true it is. Thanks
thanks for this video post sir.i observed that your water level is low,is it because they are still small? If I have 200 fingerlings, should I be increasing water level as they grow? Or always it shd b 800 litres every time in 1000 litres? thanks sir
Am actually changing water, it can't be this low, when I finish draining I'll raise the level very high. I said it in the video that am changing water.
Of course, it does its waste water. That's why I've always said that people intending to start fish farming should do so where there is a steady flowing gutter
Thank you sir for this information. Please I want to ask whats the current price for small fishes weighing 0.5kg? The small sizes for smoking. And also the price for fishes weighing 1kg - 1.5kg. Please sir I await your response 🙏
Sir please what can I use to treat infection in my catfish ponds. The mortality rate is high as a result of the infections.. their fins are peeling both under and top🙏🙏🙏
Hope your ponds are not to congested? Check also your water pH, if this doesn't work, change your feed to a higher one. Or stop feeding until the mortality rate slows down.
Thank you sir for this teaching it's just for me

Yes you need to drain the pond completely, flush out any little remaining, then lock up the outlet and fill fresh water.
@@gregosuma Thank you very much sir. God bless you.
Sir please doc you take the fishes out whiles draining the pond
No, you don't take fishes out before draining.
Thanks always.

@@uzziahtrading6 I just stock about four brood stocks, the four has produced a little number of others
Nice one Mr Greg...I want to ask she changing the water should we dry all the water?. Or should we leave a very small quantity of water in the pond?. Bcos some say we should dry just half of the water and refill...
I dry all and flush the remaining, before filling water
Mr Greg. You have awesome content! If you need to change water everyday, you need a constant low cost or free water like a well, do you have wells and what capacity. Also what happens to all the waste water?
Waste water is channelled to a flowing gutter, powerful pump help me fill fast
@@gregosumaWhat is the size of your pump please?
Thank u so much for the updates sir. Should I assume that no airation in that tank?
None
Thanks for your videos. Please, I will you to talk about quantity of water per each size of of pond. And what is the quantity of fish to stock per each size of pond. Thanks
Lets say I want to stock 1000 fishes till table size, what should be the size of pond?
12 by ten or five 6 by 4 tarpaulin tanks
@@gregosuma measurement in ft or metres? Thanks for your swift response.

Thank u so much sir, pls can u do a video on how to formulate local feeds for catfish at different stages? Thanks so much
I don't do my own feed, so I can't do a video on that.
@@gregosuma Can you do a video of the feed, the type and amount, you feed at each stage from right after yolk sack absorption to stocking in grow-out tanks? Thanks for the informative videos
Great lecture sir, please sir can you enlighten me how using better leaf water to treat catfish or the tank. I heard that from someone I don't know how true it is. Thanks
I don't use leaf, so I can't advice properly
@@gregosuma ok sir, thanks
thanks for this video post sir.i observed that your water level is low,is it because they are still small?

Am actually changing water, it can't be this low, when I finish draining I'll raise the level very high. I said it in the video that am changing water.
Changing water everyday seems extreme, u must not have any filtration
If you flush your pond water into the gutter, does it not smell and degrade the environment?
Of course, it does its waste water. That's why I've always said that people intending to start fish farming should do so where there is a steady flowing gutter

My chiaman thanks very much please sir this your farm is at Wich state sir

In Lagos state
Good morning sir, pls am in Abuja,how can I see you sir
Am not in Abuja, I live in Rivers State
Where is your location I want to buy juvenile and how much is the price
My farm doesn't have juvis for now.
What kind of food do you give them?
Fish feed

@@gregosuma They are almost 4 months old from post fingerlings. They are 700 in a very big concrete pond. Not congested at all
If I can oxygenate the water using a device do I still need to change every 2days?
If your fishes are not over crowded in a pond, I don't think you might need to change everyday.
How can one determine PH level?
There are equipments you can buy from your local stores for this purpose.
Good day Sir,
May I please get a contact by which I can speak/write to you directly. Thank you
