Tilapia are sometimes known as “aquatic chicken”, due to their high growth rates, adaptability to a wide range of environmental conditions, ability to grow and reproduce in captivity and feed on low trophic levels. As a result, these fishes have become excellent candidates for aquaculture, especially in tropical and subtropical regions. Indeed, tilapia culture has been expanding rapidly, and is now practiced in more than one hundred countries worldwide.

    Hello there,

    Interesado ako na maging tilapia raiser at bago ako mag engage d2 nais ko magkaroon ng technical know how to make sure I will have a correct start. Meron bang seminar about this sa CLSU Fisheries.
    Is it possible to convert the puddy rice area into a fishpond adjacent to its neighbor puddy ricefield? I doubt ang mga fertilizer at insecticide sa palay na maaaring makaapekto sa tilapia. Taga Tondod, San Jose City po ang napangasawa ko at andun ang lupa nila (350mx20m) approximate area.
