whao your soon hock so big already? I thought u r buying some tiny fish baby.

I read about an article that the fish farmer keeping some mature talapia in his soon hock pool to breed up some baby talapia for the soon hock as snack. Consider that too.

And since u said u hv a river nearby? So water shouldn't be an issue, try change water a lot instead of relying heavily on filter, and also try to figure out a way to harness the river energy to pump your water(water mill, gravity, etc) it is really a good idea to lower your utility bill.

harnessing the energy ? is there a device to do so in the market ad?? sounds interesting to me as im an 3rd year engineering student who studied energy harnessing. if theres no such device , i would love to create a prototype to make small buck , hehe.

My farm is situated at Jalan Hulu Rinching2, is about 5 minutes from the town. My neighbour is a huge rabbit farm. They supply rabbit meat. I only breed pure breed for pet. You all are welcome to visit my farm.

Now, the rabbit farm is my part time only. Now i am expanding the farm, start import show quality buck and doe from over sea to breed.

Difficulty: not enough money. and our weather is really challenging.
I have invested more than 80k. Still putting in money.....
I involved in pet rabbit sector because not many people involved. My aim is the largest pure breed pet rabbit farm in Malaysia. Hope can achieve it.
partime? so who take care of the daily affairs of this farm since u do it parttime? food for rabbit , cleaning, etc.. ?
