But I noticed they are weak and dying despite the fact that I change the water and wash the pwn every 3 to 4 days. What could be the problem?

You’re welcome Zeezzay. A net for covering the top of your earthen pond to prevent predators from entering your pond and eating your fish when they are small, 10k is just an estimate, it may be more or less depending on your location.

To me fish farming is not a profitable venture in Africa, it still needs to be research upon and the amenities that sorports profitable farming is not yet in place like electricity, good sources of water and veterinary services. I can only do fish farming for pleasure and self uses and not commercial.
