Site selection for pond

·         Good water retention capacity of pond

·         Clay, clay-loam, silty-clay-loam are preferable kinds of soil for fish pond site.

·         Water quality of the site is an important factor because fish growth depends on it. Survival and growth of fish highly depends on ambient water temperature. A water temperature between 28 °C- 32 °C is generally good for fish farming.

·         Good transportation system

·         Availability of fry and fingerlings Shrimp PL

·         Electricity and Bio-Security.

·         Protected from flood

·          

Design and construction of pond:

^·          Size      > 3000-4000 m²

·         Shape   > square

·         Depth   > should be 5-6 feet

·         Pond bottom > hard soil

·         Dike height  >  0.6–0.7 meter above the desired water depth

·         Dike slope     > Dike slopes should be 1: 1.75

·         Supply and drainage canal: Shrimp pond must have separate canals for drainage and supply of water for avoiding contamination.

·         Fencing to prevent entry any type of animal like crab, snack, frog, cow and other unnecessary live organism.
