Catfish Cultivation

Catfish cultivation does not require a complex treatment regimen. No need to dig in the dirt or make the pond and do not need to create a pool of concrete, but simply using tarps or deklit. But if not permanent can dig the ground or create a pool of concrete. Using a tarp or deklit have advantages and disadvantages. Those advantages are low cost, practical, easy to make, and easy bringed wherever we want, as well as the process becomes very easy to harvest.


The disadvantage is not as durable- good quality tarp could last more than 3 years, if the leak would be quite difficult, and likely to tear. For the small-cap and are eager to learn, I guess the choice of using a tarp quite right.


For 1000 cultivated tail catfish enough sheeting measuring 4 × 6 meters. Tarp this size can be made into a pond measuring 2 × 3 meters. Size 2 × 3 with a thickness of 80 cm of water is the ideal size for 1000 tail catfish.


Tarpaulin-bend bent in such a way that resembles the above-ground concrete pool. Corners or in the pool can be at stake sekiling with wood or bamboo. In addition to strong, cotton trees grow so that it can not decay, durable.


Once the pool finished, prepare a medium. Anyway ... preferably before the new sheeting is used, soaked first in water or clean washed that the chemicals could sheeting minused.


Key of success in the maintenance of any fish, including catfish, is a good preparation of the medium media. So good it will also result. Catfish do not have to water flow other catfish for us who are in the water.


Give pool with water as high as 15-20 Cm. Than, sow cow manure half-baked at 5-10 cm. Chopped banana trunks and seed in this pool. Can give coconut fibers in the yangtidak too much, for 1 to 2 weeks. Until water have colored brown and even green. Is that green water color is ready to be already living in the fertile media. Mikroorganisme iniyang water needed by the catfish.


Carried out the morning feeding danpetang day, which usually catfish have appetite high. Food sum body adjust to the west, which is 5% of the total weight of all populations pool.


I usually do not bother with 5%, but viewed from event feeding. Give a little food. If you feed wild prey, so give a little longer, until eat not way too wild. Do not be too much feed because it can make bloating and die. During the day as well fed, but feed a lot of meaning too large ongkosproduksi. It should provide additional feed at today. Eg give die chicken hung in the pool surface that remains of inedible chicken could not be garbage we out and in the pool. Can until give worms and bran, or food supplements do not need buy.


Catfish will be ready to harvest in the age 2-3 months, with the size of 8-12 individuals per kilogram.
