Start small and observe often

2026-06-24 · Fish Farming #stocking #feeding #beginners

New fish farmers learn fastest by starting with a modest number of fish and watching water, behaviour and feeding closely.

Many problems in fish farming are caught early by simple observation.

  • Look at the fish at feeding time: are they active and eating well?
  • Check the water colour and smell, and keep a simple daily record.
  • Feed according to the guidance for your species and adjust to what the fish actually eat.
  • Keep equipment clean and working, especially aeration and filters.

Training helps. Our Academy runs courses and events for farmers at different levels; see the related links.
