What we do

The basics of fish farming, done properly. Every price here comes from our published price list, and delivery is one charge per order.

  • Fish ponds, dug and lined

    We dig your pond to 1.5 m and fit HDPE dam liner in 250, 300 or 400 micron. Standard sizes run from 10 × 10 m to 20 × 30 m, and we build other sizes on request.

    from $430

  • Bird / Predator Nets

    Birds and other predators eat fish. We put a net over the pond so they can't reach them.

    from $70

  • Tilapia fingerlings

    Sold in lots of 1,500, the right number for one 10 × 10 m pond, and delivered with your order.

    $115 per 1,500

  • Fish feed

    Starter, juvenile and grower feed by the bag. You buy each stage as your fish grow into it, so you don't have to store feed for months.

    from $23 a bag

  • Site visits optional

    If you want one, we test your water (including pH), check the soil holds water, look at slope, drainage and access, and mark out the pond. If you go ahead, the fee comes off the job.

    $50

  • Dam liners

    Heavier HDPE dam liner, up to 1 mm thick, for dams and large ponds.

    Ask for a price

  • Fixing leaking ponds

    We find and repair leaks in existing ponds, so they hold their water again.

Why FishTech

Fish farming in Zimbabwe is still mostly done by hand, and feeding is often guesswork. FishTech is a Zimbabwean aquaculture and technology company working to make fish farming more efficient and profitable through digital tools, starting with the basics done properly.

Our work is aligned with Vision 2030 and the National Development Strategy 2 on food security and innovation, and with the Sustainable Development Goals on zero hunger, decent work, industry and innovation, responsible production, and life below water.

Published prices
Our pond, net, fingerling, feed and delivery prices are all on this website, and our WhatsApp sales line quotes from the same list.
One delivery charge
Delivery and logistics is charged once per order, however many trips the job takes.
Site visits on request
If you want one, we test your water and check your ground before we build.
No pond chemicals
We don't sell pond chemicals, and we advise against them. Clean water and good feeding come first; for sick fish, salt is the safe first treatment.
Straight answers
We don't promise harvest weights, growth or survival. They depend on water, feeding and care, and we'll help you plan for them.

Common questions

How much does a fish pond cost?

A 10 × 10 m pond, 1.5 m deep, with 250 micron liner is $430. The largest standard pond, 20 × 30 m with 400 micron liner, is $2,200. Every size and liner is on our pond prices page.

Do you work outside Harare?

Yes, across the whole of Zimbabwe. Delivery and logistics is one charge per order, from $20 to $50, depending on the road distance from Harare to your farm or its nearest town.

What does a site visit cost, and do I need one?

$50, and it's optional. We test your water, including its pH, check that the soil holds water, look at slope, drainage, flooding and access, and mark out the pond. If you go ahead with the job, the visit fee comes off the price.

How do I pay?

Half before we start and half when the pond is finished. Our quotations hold for 30 days.

How many fish can I keep in one pond?

A 10 × 10 m pond, 1.5 m deep, holds 1,500 fingerlings. Larger ponds hold more in proportion: a 20 × 20 m pond holds about 6,000.

How long until my fish are ready to sell?

Tilapia usually take about 6 to 8 months to reach a size buyers like, if they are fed well and the water is good.

Can you guarantee my harvest?

No. Growth, survival and harvest weight depend on your water, feeding, fingerlings and daily care, so we won't promise a figure. We'll help you plan, and you can ask us on WhatsApp at any time along the way.

Can you build other sizes, or deeper ponds?

Other sizes, yes. Ask us on WhatsApp for a price. We build in firm ground to 1.5 m deep. For deeper ponds, or soft or wet ground, ask us first so we can look at the site.
