The Best Tilapia Spawning Video on Youtube

[@ryansetaro3830]

Very interesting video. I really enjoyed how you explained the information. Easy and fun to watch 👍

[@alzeal]

For me raising tilapia in southern CA its a question of how to make them stop spawning lol. I no longer have a separate breeding tank. I just watch out for little fry in the grow out tanks and scoop them out, every month or so I have a new batch to grow.

[@NewAgrarian]

Haha I hear that.. prob separate them by gender which I know is time consuming … or lower the temp

[@yashp]

Gender reversal add male hormone into their feed they'll stop breeding

[@algerprajes8865]

Wow. I could have those. I have hard time spawning. Can you give some tips

[@FieldGnews]

Good day sir, please what stuff do you have in the water boiling

[@acctsupsvc6454]

Thanks for a wonderful video man but I am new to this, what is a hatching jar? Do you have a video of this?

[@NewAgrarian]

No, you don’t need it. Just another option

[@rouxzherr1304]

What chemical are you using when transporting fingerlings or shooters for stress prevention

[@NewAgrarian]

Nothing. Not for tilapia at least. They are beasts

[@joelkoonce8559]

My Wife has a field in Buriram Thailand, We are going to build a house there. I want to raise fish , fingerlings to sell to farmers, mature fish for the Saturday market. Thank you for the very informative video. 😊

Great tutorial! thanks!

[@stargategoku]

thanks a lot for posting!

[@biramirwadieudonneramybyab8811]

Thank for this important video for us and i think it has inspired most of us. However, is this possible for many spawns like 40.000 spawns ? I am improving my fish farming business, but facing challenges on how I can produce as many spawns as possible. What do I need more?

[@algerprajes8865]

Do you know a store where we can buy hatching jar or incubator specifically for Tilapia? I have incubator but they have bigger hole and most of the times the eggs are suck out from the jar. Let meknow if you have idea. I tried multiple times but have not been successful at all. Tried artificial and natural way

[@shannanhostetler5349]

How big do they need to be before breeding?

[@elsavargas9402]

Hello, thank you for your video, it is amazing learning how to reproduce the tilapia.Where did you buy the fish hatching jar? if you don't mind to provide me with the info.

[@bonifaciolauz7486]

I like the video great idea very helpful thanks a lot

[@NewAgrarian]

Of course

[@elieduma130]

Would I be able to use plants instead of a filter if I kept them in there for longer?

[@NewAgrarian]

You’d have to set up a separate container for the plants, tilapia will eat the plant roots

[@Benmusasa]

Do you provide hand out for the whole process

[@MTFISHER]

Raising tilapias at the moment. Is there an age at which they stop spawning?

[@NewAgrarian]

Good question.. I’m not sure because I usually harvest them around 2 years

[@MTFISHER]

@@NewAgrarian my ones are about to hit 2 years soon. But they beat each other so much i had to put a divider… not sure how i will get them to breed

[@arzarefaldy264]

[@nidalshehahadeh7485]

After mating in the 80 degree tank do you put them back in regular temperature water ?

[@NewAgrarian]

The adults? Yes. Regular temp is in the 70s

[@NewAgrarian]

You mean 2 species of eggs together?

[@aaaaaa-t7s7b]

Hi! What food safe dechlorinator do you use?

[@NewAgrarian]

Sunlight and aeration for a few days will get rid of it

[@UbaidUllah-wf5we]

in the video 3 minutes and 23 seconds you have said that the temperature best for tilapia spawning is 80 so that is in degree Celsius or degree Fahrenheit?

[@BigChickenLilRanch]

It's Celsius, just make sure you salt the water and throw some herbs in there or it'll taste bad.

[@NewAgrarian]

Farenheit

[@HuiJinArowana]

Hey can I ask if we need to feed them in their breeding tank? Or let them breed no need to feed?

[@NewAgrarian]

Feed until the female has eggs

[@garangmawienwol3982]

How do you tolerate tilapia to be come farming

[@mr.tonzing3574]

how many eggs will they lay and how many of them will hatch to become actual fish??

[@NewAgrarian]

Depends on their body weight, but you can usually get most of the eggs to hatch with proper care. biggest issues I've had are inadequate circulation in the jar

[@cheryllooc3242]

Hi God bless thank you i got idea from your video.

[@Rainingggg]

I’ve heard that we can identify the sex of tilapia by the color of their tail fin (male has pink/redish tail fin), is that correct sir?

[@NewAgrarian]

Ehh.. I wouldn’t rely on it but it’s possible

[@naturegreeneries9396]

[@NewAgrarian]

Yes it would

[@djjoel1]

I found the most important factor for me was pH. They likle a pH of 8.0 for spawning. I needed to up my pH so I used crushed coral. I have 2 pregnant females finally!

I am not sure what you mean

[@zoubir6082]

I think that Tilapia society is like human society, if there are more males than females, they will be aggressive, but if there are more females, we will live in peace 😁😁 _Thanks for the information about tilapia fish ❤🙏

Showing the male would be a helpful comparison.

Can they survive without separating in pond

[@NewAgrarian]

Separating the mother from offspring? Eh.. I’d say it’s possible but unlikely

[@daryl8106]

Sir i have a question, if i have 6 tilapia. How many plants it can sustain in the aquaponic? I am planting greeneyes lettuce. Im planing to build a 135 slot of hydroponics. Or should i go for (solution base) hydroponic? Thank you

[@NewAgrarian]

6 fish would not sustain much, maybe a 2-4 square foot area. I would go with solution based for 135 plants

[@Variety_Clips101]

Does all tilapia spawn like this ??

[@NewAgrarian]

In the genus oreochromis yes

[@iCollect_Official]

Do you still feed the female while she has eggs in her mouth?

[@NewAgrarian]

No, typically they’re not interested

[@iCollect_Official]

@@NewAgrarian what do u feed tilapia fingerlings?

[@NewAgrarian]

@@iCollect_Official same food as adults, just grind up into a powder

[@darterkiyounes6917]

If the female has eggs in her mouth, she will stop eating; So the best way to check the female is whene you give food (you don't need to fellow the fish all the time) if you have more then six fish or you have a big tank that will be hard to find. Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@patelmanzoor4328]

what if all my fish is monosex

[@wilbertsuryajaya5688]

in my country tilapia farming is very popular,a big problem while raising tilapia is in their growth stage they would breed with on another,causing many females to be stunted so people sometimes gave testosterones to the larvas of the fish until they are a fingerling to make all of them males,they grow faster and they won't breed.usually tilapia offspring that are made during the raising of tilapia is ignored or even thrown away since they are of bad quality and wont grow well. generally if we want to breed tilapia we need to raise them for a year and pick tilapias that are 1 to 2.5 kgs in size,they yield offspring that grows well and won't be dwarves.my country has government certified tilapia hatcheries and research labs.in those research labs they selectively breed tilapia and come up with newer breeds of tilapia.in hatcheries what they do is they put good quality tilapia in giant mud ponds,they feed them high protein pellets once they bred they let the females raise the tilapia babies until they are fingerling. they scoops up the fingerlings and sell it to fish raisers

[@rafiezulphj8641]

female have minus sign is it?

[@NewAgrarian]

Yes

[@petersmirti4143]

There has to be an easier way to identify the females. If you are growing them in a large outdoor pond, you can't expect to grab fish one at a time and put die on them.

[@happymadavhu6354]

does the fish eat 2weeks babes

[@fridaromero5044]

What's the point of the hatching jar as opposed to just leaving the eggs in the aquarium to hatch?

[@NewAgrarian]

They will get moldy if they do not circulate

[@aznmien1871]

are you able to tell which is male and female without touching them ? example, i'm able to tell its a male when its a declares this side of the tank is theirs.. for other species of fish you can tell its a female by seeing how fat their belly is cause it has lots of eggs... i'm not sure about female tilapia..

[@NewAgrarian]

Sometimes yes, females with have rounder nose and males will have bigger lips and a pointy snout

[@randallgoguen3463]

80 degres temperature do you want to make a soup of tilapia

[@NewAgrarian]

Yes, you probably shouldnt try what I suggest

[@thomaswolf6507]

Far easier to go by breeding behaviors. According to the biologists w/ Lakeway Tilapia, this cannot be performed without special equipment as the duct is too small to see otherwise - the whole food coloring thing, I tried it when I was a noob. One of the easiest fish to breed ever. With blue tilapia the males tend to turn more white while displaying and the females tend to put on stripes, while the other females tend to darken from the abuse of the process. I know this from a lot of experience and observation. I can't speak on any other species outside the blues. The only time I ever ran into a problem was with an alpha female. But, that's an easy fix. Once a fish is holding, you know it's a female. I'll move them one at a time to a breeding colony to make sure and then move the breeding male last to get any other brood stock or competing fish out of the tank. Learning to ID fish that look mostly identical is a bit of a trick. For me the hard part isn't getting fry, it's growing them all out to 8"+, some 14"+, the amount of work that goes into it with my conditions is ridiculous, I opted to keep my breeder at low temps until just before spring and invested in ice fishing equipment this year... power costs are going up and heating ponds in Wisconsin winters is too power extensive. Edit: 2 females to 1 male is cruel. You want at least 4 or 5, ideally 6 females as the abuse is extensive, if you put 2 females in with an aggressive breeding male he will kill them in a couple of days or less. Bad advice. I wouldn't use less than 5 females and you have to give them a place to hide for breaks between "rough and mostly unwanted foreplay." It's also a horrible idea to put two breeding males in one tank, you want singular breeding colonies with specific fish selected for their traits, but, more importantly, they will kill each other! The tank does not look good. I'd never represent myself in aquaculture next to a tank like that - this video is packed with noob misinfo.
