Introduction to the catfish juvenile system Plug and Play
After the fish are transferred from catfish fingerling system Plug and Play to the catfish juvenile system Plug and Play, the fingerlings need about 4 weeks to grow to 5-gram juveniles (in the case of Clarias gariepinus. The juvenile system consists of two fish tanks which are very easy to maintain (disinfect and clean) between each batch of fry. These larger catfish juveniles are much stronger than the smaller catfish fingerlings, giving them a head start in the pre on-growing section of your catfish grow out farm.
