The recommended expected weight of catfish
This is the recommended weight your catfishes should have after some month(s). This will help you to compare if you fishes are growing well based on what is expected. Please note that the recommendations below are purely based on average results achieved from various successful fish farms.
Assuming you stocked catfish juveniles of 10 grams, you should realize the following weights after specific months if you are carrying out all the best management practices.
At end of first-month weight should be between 100-150 grams (0.1-0.15kg)
Second-month weight should be between 150-250 grams (0.15-0.25kg)
Third-month weight should be between 250-500grams (0.25-0.5kg)
Fourth-month weight should be between 500-900 grams (0.5-0.9kg)
Fifth-month weight should be between 900-1600 grams (0.9-1.6kg)
Sixth-month weight should be between 1600-2400 grams (1.6-2.4kg)
More than six months weight should be between Greater than 2400grams (>2.4kg)
The resulting weight above can be achieved under recommended best practices in catfish farming.
With good feeds that meet the nutritional requirement of your fishes, good water quality and good fish seeds, farmers should be able to get a result that falls within the range given above.
