We rear Clarias gariepinus to exacting standards — optimized feed, rigorous pond management, and consistent harvest quality for buyers who demand the best.
Founded in the Year of Jubilee, Akome Aqua Farm has grown into one of the region's most technically rigorous catfish operations. We specialize exclusively in Clarias gariepinus reared in managed flow-through systems, fed on carefully formulated plant-protein diets optimized for growth rate, feed conversion, and flesh quality.
Our operation is based in Delta State, Nigeria, serving processors, market traders, and farmers across the country with live fish at market weight and fingerlings for on-farm rearing.
We work exclusively with the species best suited to Nigerian conditions and proven market demand.
Native to Africa, this species dominates Nigerian aquaculture due to its hardiness, feed conversion efficiency, and consumer acceptance. Our stock is maintained from selective on-farm broodstock lines, ensuring genetic consistency and performance across production cycles.
A disciplined four-stage production cycle ensures consistent sizing, predictable availability, and traceability from pond to buyer.
Maintained on-farm broodstock selected for growth performance and health status. Induced spawning under controlled conditions using hormone protocols.
Larvae reared in dedicated hatchery tanks on live feed transitioning to formulated starter diets. Careful water quality control through the critical early stage.
Fingerlings stocked into flow-through concrete ponds at managed densities. Fed optimized plant-protein diets with enzyme and amino acid supplementation for FCR efficiency.
Fish harvested at target market weight of 1–1.5 kg. Live fish dispatched to processors, traders, and farm-gate buyers. Fingerling supply available to other farmers.
Graded harvests mean you receive fish within a tight weight range, not a wide mix. Predictable sizing is critical for processors and restaurant buyers.
We formulate our own feeds using known ingredients. No mystery inputs. Buyers who care about what their fish ate can get the full diet specification.
Staggered pond stocking means we harvest throughout the year, not in one seasonal flush. Long-term supply relationships can be planned in advance.
We supply healthy juvenile Clarias to other farms across the region. Our fingerlings are raised on formulated diets from week two — not wild-caught.
Our team has deep hands-on knowledge of Clarias nutrition, pond chemistry, and disease management. We are not a casual operation.
We welcome buyers, processors, and other farmers to visit the farm, inspect our ponds, and assess our operation before placing orders.
Whether you need live market-size fish, a regular fingerling supply, or a long-term procurement arrangement — reach out and we will respond promptly.
