When to feed your Catfish: Feeding frequency on Catfish Farming #catfishfarm #feeding

The feeding frequency is the number of times fish in a pond are fed in a day. The following should be taken into account, when deciding how frequently fish should be fed each day:
❖ In grow-out ponds, feeding 2 or 3 times a day is adequate;
❖ Proper feeding frequencies reduce starvation and result in more uniform sizes of fish. Juvenile catfish need to be fed more frequently than adults, because they have higher metabolic rates and their stomachs are too small to hold all the feed they require for a day;

❖ Catfish from 400 g can be fed once a day, because at this size the stomach can hold enough food for the day (However, twice a day is recommended for efficient growth)
❖ The feed administered at a meal should be consumed within the first 15 minutes of the feeding if floating diet is being used.

Fingerlings (3 to 4 grams): twice daily
    Post-fingerlings (4 – 6 grams): once or twice daily
    Juvenile (6 – 10 grams): once or twice daily
    Post-juvenile (10 grams and above): once daily
    Anything above post-juvenile: once daily
