quality of feeds for Hybrid Magur is more important than for catfish. Unlike clarias catfish, Hybrid Magur are fed mainly on fresh trash fish. Minced trash fish is the sole feed for Hybrid Magur fry and is fed ad libitum, the feeding rate being adjusted after observing fish behaviour during feeding. The fish are fed three times a day from fry to the fingerling stage. The inclusion of trash fish in Hybrid Magur feed is reduced to 80% by the addition of 20% of rice bran when the fish reach the fingerling size. In some farms a mixture of trash fish and cooked broken rice is used. Trash fish is normally delivered to the farms but some farmers who want to select better quality trash fish collect it directly from ports.

How to Start a Catfish Fishery : Often associated with high startup and overhead costs, starting a catfish fishery can yield large profits over time with the proper implementation of a business plan and good marketing.
1. Acquire flat land for a pond. The location of the pond should have vehicle access, be made of a compact soil, be free of silt, be 5 to 7 feet deep and have a gently sloping bottom. A good starting size for a Catfish pond is 1 to 6 acres.
2. Construct the pond. If the land already has a pond on it, you can use it for your fishery. Otherwise, you will need to excavate the land to create a pond by removing the topsoil and vegetation and using clay subsoil. Install the water supply and drain lines and cover them with good quality clay. At this time, also install the oxygen meter agitators and aerators.
3. Plant grass seeds around the pond to help prevent erosion.
4. Fill the pond with catfish. The number of catfish to stock in your pond depends on its size, the aeration system you installed, your experience level with aquaculture, the size of your market and amount of business risk you are willing to accept. It is best for new catfish farmers to start with a smaller amount of fish .. no more than 6000 fish per acre… and expand with experience. To help ensure the health of your catfish, purchase vaccinated fingerlings that you have had tested for diseases by an independent lab. Before placing the fingerlings into the pond, temper water in their transport tanks with water from the pond so they are not stressed by the change in water.
5. Feed the fingerlings catfish feed. Each small fish will eat 3 percent of it body weight daily. The warmer the temperature of the water, the more the fish will eat. When the water temperature is over 65 degrees, you should feed the catfish daily. The ideal water temperature for catfish is 86 degrees, but they can survive in temperatures of 46 degrees. Store the food in feed bins that you keep in a cool, dry location.
