Hatchery Expert Breeding and Rearing of Coarse Fish

At Babylon Fish Farm, our hatchery is the heart of everything we do. Unlike many suppliers who simply buy and sell fish, we breed, rear, and care for our own stock, ensuring the highest quality for our customers. With over 30 years of experience in fish farming, we provide healthy, well-conditioned coarse fish for commercial fisheries and club ponds throughout South East England.

Why Our Hatchery Matters Controlled Quality Breeding

Our hatchery allows us to control every stage of the fish’s life, from breeding through to juvenile rearing. This level of control ensures strong, high-quality genetics, producing carp that are robust, fast-growing, and well-suited to a range of fisheries.

By carefully managing their environment, nutrition, and development, we maintain optimal fish health, significantly reducing the risk of disease and ensuring each fish is well-conditioned before leaving our facility. This also allows us to achieve consistency in size and species, making stocking more efficient and predictable for our customers.

By breeding and raising our own fish, we provide fisheries with stock that is reliable, healthy, and ready to thrive in your ponds.

Species We Breed

We specialise in breeding a wide variety of coarse fish suitable for both commercial and club fisheries.

Available Species:

F1 Carp

One of the most popular carp for commercial fisheries, known for their fast growth, reliability, and consistent sport for anglers.

Mirror Carp

A traditional carp species recognised for their distinctive scale patterns and impressive size potential.

Ghost Carp

Striking in appearance with their bright colouring, ghost carp are a favourite for adding visual interest and variety to stocked waters.

Each species is carefully monitored from the moment eggs are fertilised to when juveniles are ready for delivery. Our Tier 1 Biosecurity certification and regular CEFAS health checks ensure that all fish meet the highest standards of disease prevention and health management.
