It is not actually about the number of fish but rather about the amount of feed going to the fish. 1500 lettuce need about 1kg of fish feed p.d., depending on the species of fish you are farming as some feed is `richer' than others.
Check out the self-study training videos we offer at www.aquaafrica.co.za/shop-online/self-study-courses the Aquaponics Components module will provide all the ratios you require.
Once the system is mature the nutrients (ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, etc) will be at levels that do not affect the fish negatively in a correctly design and run aquaponics system.
Good morning Athar, I am sorry that your catfish fry are dying. I recommend that you order the self-study training material from www.aquaafrica.co.za and work out which of the many possible factors is not correct in your situation. It is very possible that either nutrition or water quality are responsible though, with pathogens another possible contender.

the best success that i've had was by following the Keiths Ponics Site (just google it) without a doubt the best course i've tried.
