hello,
my ex-gf took me once to a mini-van station about 15 drive with a tuk-tuk before from Lee Garden Plaza. I am trying to recall where that place is. As far as i can remember (this is beginning of the year) there were nice neat and small signboards of each locations for most of the southern provinces for each row of mini-vans, similar to taxi stands.
I remember that the prices were the most affordable as i paid once around THB60 per seat for a drive all the way to Danok Sadao Immigration (southern entry to malaysia). Can anyone help me in terms of Name of that place (to tell the taxi drivers) as i do plan to fly into hatyai again and utilized their service to the northern provinces.
any help will be most appreciated. Cheers

I don't know if i can do this, but i just send the same post in the other topic dealing with Hat Yai.
I just want to let the people know that Hat Yai is a great city with nice people (Thais and western) and you can have a lot of fun there...
I live in Hat Yai since over a year. I enjoy this area as it is still quiet and not too much western crowded as Pathaya is. What i mean is that it is not the same style, and it is true that for western people you can visit Hat Yai in 1 day 1/2.
The interesting thing is to rent a car (Budget has very cheap prices there) and go around with someone who knows the places.
If you go to Satun, you'll find better waterfalls then the one indicated in Lonely planet overcrowded with locals. i used to make a BBQ with friends there, and you can even find kind of pools under the water fall like in the french west indies.
On the way to Pattani from Songkhla, there are untouched beaches.
You can go to Pathalung rent a bicycle to a 1 day trip in the rubber trees.
The Songkhla lake has some very nice sea food restaurants.
On the Ko Yoh island, you will find a very nice museum (i never new that not less than 70 year ago there used to be Black people... African...! living in Songkhla province... amazing... ok i am still the only french-egyptian there
).You can make a boat trip on the lake to visit the fish farms.
You can go around to Satun and have a look to the shrimp farms (i work in this business).
50 km south of Songkhla you can book a sport fishing boat (the real one and not in wood) and go on Grouper, snapper, thuna or other kinds of fishes fishing (not the small fish sizes...)
There is so much you can do there, but you need a car as many things are between 30 min and 1h30 min drive. You can easily stay there 1 week. the only thing is to know someone who can take you arround.
Exept this, if you live in Hat Yai you can play football and even RUGBY...
For the amateurs there are 2 or 3 4x4 off road teams,
Fitness centers and swimmipools everywhere,
BBQ's on Samila beach,
Dinning at Swanns,
Cheap and very good Buffet at Novotel...
there is really a lot to do, I enjoy this place...
hello Amir,
nice to hear you are enjoying Hatyai... would be really interesting to visit your shrimp farm... was thinking to start something like that (dont worry, i only have a fishfarm, tilipia, and my farm is actually in Philippines; so no competition for you
). what i am saying is it would be interesting to meet up with you. kind regards -
just like to add my formula that i got from a friend of mine in fisheries. it had worked for me in my tilapia ponds as i am getting 3-4/kg by week 20. please feel free to comment as i still consider myself an amateur in this field. anyone happen to be in philippines (yes, not thailand) you are welcome to contact me at [email protected]. kind regards
Preparation of pond – 1st week,
Chicken manure…150 m^2 pond size requires around 20 (25 kgs) bags of good manure
This is good for 2-3 weeks…add manure should the need requires
Week 4
Fry mash – 16k fingerlings will require ¼ bag daily (morning 1/8 & evening 1/8)
Week 5
Mix with starter. ¼ bag of frymash + 3-5 kgs starter. Apply lime 4 bags. Apply fertilizer 16-20-0 two days later (1-2 bags). Increase water 2-5 inches. Mark all water level not to let it be down after that certain level.
Week 7
Increase starter feeds to 6-8 kgs; option to mix with fry mash if fingerlings still small. No more fry mash when week 9 starts
Week 9
Starter feeds increased to 9-10 kgs. No more fry mash. Increase water 2-4 inches.
Weeks 11
Starter feeds reduced to 6-7 kgs mix with juvenile 7-8 kgs. Apply lime 4 bags. Apply fertilizer 16-20-0 two days later
Week 12
Juvenile 14-15 kgs and optional starter feeds 3-4 kgs. Sampling should be 9-10 pieces per kg (90 days). If sampling weight not achieved, the following required (1) increase starter to 6 kgs and juvenile 17kgs, (2) increase water level another 2-4 inches, (3) partial flush, using robin or tractor pump with piping at bottom of pond bed (4) clean sludge forming at water surface. (5) Chemical for growth may be needed.
Week 14
Juvenile at 16-18 kgs, no more starter feeds. Increase water another 2-4 inches. Sampling rate 6-8 pieces per kg.
Week 15
Apply growth chemical or fertilizer 16-20-0 again if necessary. Check water level.
Week 16
Mix Juvenile 10-12 kgs + Finisher 8-10 kgs. Apply lime 4 bags. Check water level. Increase water if needed to 2 inches. Partial flush if necessary. Can remove juvenile if the fish size (mouth) is proportionate and can eat adult size. If so, increase finisher to 13-15 kgs and juvenile at 6-8 kgs.
Week 18
Finisher only 22-26 kgs. Sampling until 4-6 pieces per kg.
Week 19
Preparation for harvest. Ideal size is 3-4 pieces per kg. Don't rush into harvesting. Get the ideal size if possible.
sextudor1,just confirm for me please, you are putting 16,000 fingerlings in a 150 sq metre pond.?
i believe it is 150m^2 or slightly bigger ( i need to check again)...... is that overstocking? because so far it is given me the market size i want!
Sorry for saying this, but I find it very hard to believe that you can stock 106 fish/m2 in an open pond, without additional areation.....
have you ever checked your DO level in the ponds ??? I would imagine that it would be next to nothing, since you are using algae as you main feed-source.If you had said 1.600 fish in 150m2 pond, that would have made sense, but 16.000 !!!!!!
Regards
thanks.... just came back phils and measured the pond size.... its 12m x 8m so its 960m2.... sorry my bad...
.. appreciate the help as really thinking of going big scale here.... -

don't know much about breeds.
but i think rotweillers would be too big for me.
but any breed does a good job at guarding a home and land? does the standard thai dog, mutt do ok?
get a doberman..... best for land and house if you find rotti slightly too big for you
