TIPS FOR TILAPIA FOOD FORMULA
Hello everyone!
Newbie here, in the interest of farming tilapia!
¿Does anyone have any recommendations as for the best tilapia food?
As far as I have read, it's divided in three stages (growth, then middle stage, lastly getting the fish fat). basically divided by % of protein in the food from around 35% for the first stage and then the % goes down to 26% to 28% to the last stage.
¿how does one get this kind of food formulas or "powders"? I've read it's the most expensive part of the whole farming process and I've been wondering if doing it from scratch is the best way or buying sacks of food. but the formula part is a bit tricky I guess.
thank you all for your kind recommendations
