Good day guys
Today I will be having a discussion about The Types of Catfish Feed and their Sizes.
As a Catfish farmer you should know that feeding takes about 70% of your production and this is why you have to be careful about how you feed your fish, when you feed your fish, and what you feed your fish.
A fish that is well fed will surely yield good results at the end of the production. But when your fish is not fed appropriately then there is always a chance of taking the risks that might cause casualties like high mortality and also diseases outbreak.
So you should know your feed, the producers of the feed, how reliable they are, are they still within the reach to be utilized and not expired products?. So all of these should be put in place before you expect a good yield and a good harvest at the end of the farming season.
Your fish should be fed according to their sizes and their ages. This is what will give then a higher chance of successful growth when they fed to satisfaction. If you try to feed them beyond what they can fed on. Then three things might come in place.
They would have a stunted or slow growth. This means some of them won’t be able to feed on it and it will surely affect their growth.
It will cause pollution in the water. This pollution will come in form of the feeds not taken by the fish and then they get to dissolve in the water and mix up with the water form which will cause pollution in the water.
Lastly it is just some kind of financial waste. The fish not feeding on those feeds and also having them waste is just an example of wasting your funds.
