Research found that tobacco dust applied in culture water killed ramshorn snails within three days and did not compromise channel catfish.
Health & Welfare
Shrimp exposed to high concentrations of nitrate exhibit shorter antennae, gill abnormalities and hepatopancreas lesions. Nitrate toxicity is more of an issue for shrimp raised in lower-salinity waters.
Health & Welfare
Prevention through good hygiene, use of gloves and basic biosecurity procedures is the best method for reducing the risk of acquiring zoonotic diseases.
Health & Welfare
Wild and cultured fish around the world are commonly affected by piscine mycobacteriosis, infections of which often manifest as acute or chronic diseases.
