Using X-ray to visualise skeletal deformities
By Dave Cockerill, the Fish Vet Group - In recent years spinal deformity has become an increasingly important condition for salmon producers and especially processors. Some populations are virtually unaffected, but the incidence of deformity can be above...

Guidelines For The Land Transport Of Fish
From The USDA's APHIS - These guidelines apply to the following farmed species of fish: salmonids and cyprinids. The guidelines may also apply to other fish species. The length of time fish spend on a transport should be as short as possible.

The Benefits of Fish Meal in Aquaculture Diets
By R.D. Miles and F.A. Chapman, University of Florida - Fishmeal is recognized by nutritionists as a high-quality, very digestible feed ingredient that is favored for addition to the diet of most farm animals, especially fish and shrimp.

Fish Fingerlings: Purchasing, Transporting and Stocking
From Michael McGee and Charles Cichra - Finding a source of fish fingerlings (young fish) is the first step towards successful fish production. Following that, transporting the fish, and proper stocking procedures are necessary. Some of the most important...

The Benefits of a Veterinary Health Plan
By David Cox, the Fish Vet Group - The Veterinary Health Plan (VHP) has been used for several years as part of good farming practice in many terrestrial animal production systems and forms the basis of several herd and flock health schemes.

The Importance of Measuring Carbon Dioxide in Aquaculture
By Pete Southgate, the Fish Vet Group - While oxygen and ammonia levels are often viewed, rightly, as critical to fish health and performance, carbon dioxide tends to be ignored and very few aquaculture facilities regularly monitor CO2 levels. This is...

Shallow raceways as a compact, resource-maximizing farming procedure for marine fish species
By V. Øiestad, University of Tromsø, Norway - To develop a compact farming system, a shallow raceway has been tested on five flatfish, three bottom-dwelling species and three open-water species. The main effort has been on turbot Scophthalmus maximus...
