TYPES OF PONDS FOR FISH CULTURE

Fish culture ponds differ in size and depth depending on their functions:
(key word:ha=hectare)

1. NURSERY PONDS: They are usually about 0.02-0.05ha. The water is usually about 1m deep.
2. REARING PONDS: They are usually larger than a nursery pond. Water is about 1.5-2.0m deep. Nursery and rearing ponds are seasonal.
3. STOCKING PONDS:They are much larger,0.2-2.0ha.It should be  2.0-3.5m deep. This pond might be perennial or seasonal.
4. MARKETING PONDS: They are small but quite deep;they are used to keep fish caught from a stocking pond for sale,at short notice. Usually 0.05-0.10ha in size,water level is 3-4m in dry seasons.
5. BROODSTOCK PONDS: They are usually 0.2-0.4ha. They are perennial and have a water depth of 2m in dry season.
6. QUARANTINE PONDS: Fish are brought in from outside and placed in this pond-0.02ha,1.5m deep. This pond serves to verify that fish are not infected and if they are,treat diseased fish from other ponds here.

LIVE YOUR DREAM

                                                          AM BACK

Hello,everyone. Glad to be back. First,i will like to ask or beg Nigeria's network providers to make network available for use.(MTN,GLO).
How are you all doing? I am sorry for the short absence.

Second,i will like to say this: this blog was created to fulfil a dream-teaching;to educate. Every other dream comes secondary.  I'd like to be able to say that this blog of mine educated this person,and that person, and those people. That is enough satisfaction as any one can get. I get companies to advertise here as time goes on, fine. I don't,all well.

Third, i will like to appreciate all those who spent and still do spend precious time to read my blog(write ups for motivation, and to let the world know more than enough about my career-fisheries/aquaculture).
