Hi Agri venturers,

Good day to you. I'm an IT personnel now into tilapia farming in Kuala Selangor for about 4 months. My partner actually has been running the farm for the past 3 years, and i have jumped in the wagon to assist him. We currently growing in semen ponds.

We are revamping filter system and increasing ponds, hopefully to start with new fries by February latest.

I have most of the part covered, except a good source to buy tilapia fry / brood-stocks. I have been following the agri thread , and i believe there is a new hybrid variety is available , and able to reach maturity size in less than 4 months.

Our current batch has been growing slowly, apart from many other issues i believe in-breeding is one them. It will be a great assistance if anyone could provide
contact, whom dealing with hybrid variety / mono sex tilapia fry or brood stocks.

Dear M Century,

I think we have been in touch before regards your fish feed. I'm waiting for my partner to be back fr travelling, then should arrange an appointment with you.Thanks for the heads up on hybrid marketing issue. Guess i have to try in small batch and try to sell it with my current buyers.

The problem with the common fries, i believe there is no proper control over in-breeding. Unless you know the breeder well, and tested their fries before.
The last batch my partner bought, (somewhere in rawang) exceeded 8 months. Hope you can give me the contact of current breeder your taking from.
And as for the 30cent hybrid, do you any idea whom is dealing it? I wanna check possibility of getting brood stock.
