The document summarizes the building of a fish house and fish farming demonstration at an agricultural college in Nigeria. Teachers and students participated in excavating land and constructing the fish house, including installing plastic tanks. However, security issues prevented stocking the tanks at the college, so fingerlings were placed in demonstration ponds nearby instead. The document recommends completing construction of the fish house and stocking the tanks to continue the project, and implementing other integrated fish farming practices.
