PROCEDURE
FISHPOND SELECTION AND PREPARATION
1. Select Fishpond with the following characteristics:
y Clay soil to hold water.
y Water is accessible throughout the year and can be
sourced from river, spring, deep well, rain or tap water.
It must be free from pesticide contamination and
pollution.
y Site is elevated for water to flow easily.
expanded.
y Should not be flooded during the rainy season and
has enough sunlight.
2. Level the bottom of the pond to prevent seepage.
3. Conduct pond treatment only in concrete ponds to
remove the toxic effect of cement. Do this by washing,
flooding, and draining the pond at least three (3) times.
4. Fertilize with organic fertilizer (chicken manure) at a rate
of 1kg/sqm.
5. Fill the pond with water at an initial depth of 5-10cm after
the application of organic fertilizer for a week. This would
allow the growing of algae to serve as natural feed for
the fish. Growth can be observed through the greenish
coloration of water.
6. Fill the pond with water to the desired level between 1 m
to 1.5 m.
7. To insure no fish will escape, fine-meshed wire should
screen the drainage area (pipe).
STOCKING
1. Stock during the early morning or late in the afternoon
when the water is cool to avoid the weakening of the fish.
Care should be maintained. Choose pure quality stocks
and do not allow them to crossbreed with other species
to preserve their genetic quality.
2. Deliver the fingerlings to the pond in oxygenated plastic
bags to ensure maximum survival of the fingerlings.
3. To assimilate water in plastic bags, open the plastic bags
of fingerlings to float within the pond from 30 minutes to
one hour. Open the plastic bags in water to allow the
fingerlings to swim freely.
4. Stock the ponds of at least 6 fingerlings/sqm. The ratio is
1 male is to 3 females. Avoid to pair many male tilapias
because this tends to slow down the production of
fingerlings since they tend to eat their own fingerlings
due to lack of feed.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
1. Feed the tilapias twice daily (morning and afternoon) in
one portion of the pond. Supplement feeds with fine rice
bran, bread crumbs, earthworms and others at an initial
rate of 5% of the total body weight of the fish.
2. Maintain the natural fishfood by adding more fertilizer
every week. Place chicken droppings in sacks and
suspend in the water at every corner of the pond. Put 2.5
kg of chicken manure per bag.
3. Maintain a water depth level of 1-1.5 meters.
4. Gradually remove excess fingerlings after the third
month of stocking. Retain 6 fingerlings/sqm. Excess
fingerlings can be used in the manufacture of fish meal
and as ingredient for livestock and poultry needs.
HARVESTING
1. Introduce catfish to the pond to control the population of
small fishes for at least three months before harvest.
After 4-6 months, tilapias weigh 200-400 grams and are
ready for harvest.
2. Drain the pond totally and allow fish to accommodate the
lowest portion in the drainage area for easy harvesting.
After harvesting, stock the pond again.
