vermicompost is not a very hard thing to venture into.

The problem is when it comes to marketing the compost.

Unless you market it yourself..the profit margin will be significantly low.

Oh and remember,vermicompost need alot trial and error to get the most efficient output. Dont follow by the book.

Just to add on the Micheal J on marble goby farming especially buying from wild source,

Quarantine is a must for wild source, and also be responsible avoid buying from people who goes the cheap way using malachite green, it will just cause more problem down the road (especially for health, and export market)

Marble Goby is a hard fish to farm if you follow traditional farming method, you will still produce results but with very high mortality rate. Marble Goby are very strict in their requirements compared to other culture fish, when the condition are not met, they will make you suffer, do make sure to understand marble goby's biology as well as it will be crucial in your decision making.

Marble Goby usually need special attention for each individual fish,I have seen project putting 10k+ fish fries into a pond and came out with only 100+ after 1 year but there are also other places like Malacca and Johor which are very successful due to their attention to details.

I would suggest you to do tilapia as main and marble goby as side income first to gain more experience since your livelihood is rely on fish farming, anything can happen during the duration for those marble goby to reach marketable size. Just a small externally introduced parasite outbreak can wipe out your whole farm if not properly managed.
