Buying Feeds

When buying the feeds, the farmer should emphasize on the floating ones so as to ensure that it has been consumed by the fish and also to determine the quantity that the fish use ensuring no waste. Having no waste in the pond ensures that there is no feed sinking down into the pond and destroying the water quality for the fish.
Commercial feeds combined with quality management leads to fish growth and no diseases. Having an aerator in fish farming is advantageous as it automatically circulates oxygen into the pond, cutting the cost of regularly pumping water into the pond. Another advantage of aerators is that they provide oxygen which is essential for the faster growth of the fish.
