A young businessman from the village of Ovadnoye, Vladimir-Volyn region, grows fish in his farm. But in its basins not fish, usual for our latitudes, are splashing, but African catfish.

After defending the business plan, the man received one-time assistance from the Volyn Regional Employment Center for the development of entrepreneurship. With these funds, they started their own business - the cultivation of African catfish.

Sergey conducts his economic activities in the village of Ovadnoye in the Vladimir-Volynsky district. For fish farming, the entrepreneur maintains optimal conditions: the water in the pools has a temperature of 25-27 ° C and often changes, and the room is light, writes Roman Romanyuk, director of the Volyn Regional Employment Center, on his Facebook page.

For information, African Clari catfish is widespread throughout Africa, where it lives in freshwater bodies of water. In addition to ordinary gills, this catfish has a special organ that allows it to breathe atmospheric air. If the reservoir where this fish lives dries up, it crawls into another.

In search of water, nature took Clarium catfish for about 40 hours. All this time, outside the water element, he remains alive. Clari catfish is omnivorous, but in good conditions shows its predatory nature. Fish can grow up to 170 cm in length and reach a weight of 60 kg.
