The historical information about the establishment, operation, and volumes of production of the Fish Farm is very scarce. Future Spot, Ltd. purchased the Fish Farm in the autumn of 2009 and the activities to raise and harvest fish had taken place until the summer of 2009.

There are 10 soil embankment basins: I basin - 70 daa (precipitating, heating, and at the same time being a reservoir for water if water becomes scarce); II basin – 50 daa; III basin – 55 daa; IV basin – 70 daa; V basin – 10 daa; VI basin – 8,5 daa; VII basin – 3 daa; VIII basin – 3 daa; IX basin – 3 daa; X basin – 210 daa (arbitrarily their numbers begin from the water source towards Mandra Dam).

The plan is a Fish Restaurant, a Fish Product Commodities Exchange, as well as premises and equipment for processing fish and aquaculture products to be built.
