    Good evening Letusfarm.
    Assuming I use Skretting, after the 1.8mm and 10 bags of superior 2mm, can I continue with 2mm skretting Essential? Is the skretting Essential as good as the blue crown?

    Thank you, bro. For projection purposes can we say 1.3 kg feed should produce 1kg weight of fish from fingerlings? The months you mentioned in the vidoe, are they months they got to you or actual age of the fishes? Juveniles should be about 10 weeks if i am right. What you mean is that i should use 1.8mm the momentbi received them into the farm at this age?
    Thank you always

    • @letusfarm0619
      @letusfarm0619  3 місяці тому +1

      When u receive the the age is what am calculating because everyone cannot hatch and know the exact age . Yes 1.8mm as per 1.3kg I did not say that because what temperature at the time of feed consumption determines their weight gain

      @olayemiolatayo6013 3 місяці тому

      If u understand catfish farming u will know that their is no constant FCR its even explained in the video because the water temperature at the time of feed intake and digestion controls the FCR

    • @letusfarm0619
      @letusfarm0619  4 місяці тому

      60*30*3ft water high 1900 for best results if the water is more than 4ft it's of no use to catfish because they are not deep swimmers and even you the owner will have a tough time evacuating the fishes during sales
