What is fish health management?
Good fish is a term used to describe controls designed to prevent disease in aquatic fish. When the back is sore, it can be difficult to remove. A good fish starts with prevention, not treatment. Prevention of back disease requires good care of water, nutrition and hygiene. Without this foundation, it can not prevent the onset of infectious diseases. Fish are constantly exposed to pathogens, including bacteria, fungi and parasites. The use of vaccines (such as UV sterilizers, ozone therapy) does not eliminate the risk of infection in the environment. These diseases can be caused by poor water, poor nutrition, or the immune system, often associated with stress. These chemicals are used to treat back pain and effectively fight infectious diseases, but they are not a substitute for good animal husbandry. Daily monitoring of fish behavior and eating habits can detect problems as they arise, allowing more patients to be screened before they are diagnosed. If treatment is necessary, it is best to get it if the back is healthy and well exposed at the onset of the disease.
The significance of fish disease to aquaculture
Fish disease causes huge economic losses to fish farmers. Loss of investment in lung cancer, low processing costs and reduced growth during recovery due to increased production costs due to fish disease. In this case, we do not know much about back pain because infected animals are quickly removed from the population by animals. In addition, fish are less in the natural system than in the host. Disease and epidemics can play a small role in natural disasters, but they can also be a major problem when animals are overcrowded and miserable on the farm. Bacteria have many compounds of bacteria and fish. In general, additional conditions are required for common diseases in humans. These events are generally summarized as definitions of “pressure” (Fig. 1). The stress is fully discussed in Extension Circular UF / IFAS 919 Stress - Function of Stress and Back. Managing stress reduction may be the most effective way to prevent illness.
Determining if your fish are sick
The most obvious sign of a diseased fish is the presence of dead or dying animals. However, careful staff will often detect sick fish before it starts to die, as the infected fish may stop eating and may feel tired. Fish should be eaten very well if it is eaten regularly. Pond fish should not be seen except when eating. Examining fish that have stuck their feet in shallow water, trembling on the surface, or removing material may indicate a serious problem. These abnormalities indicate that the body is not backwards or that it has a moving object. In addition to behavioral changes, there are physiological degrees necessary for those who develop bacterial infections in the back. These may include ulcers (injury or bleeding), permanent nails, or abnormal skin tests (for example, abdominals or "falls" in protuberances or "popeye"). . If these abnormalities are detected, the back should be tested for bacterial or fungal infections.
What to do if your fish are sick
If you think your back is sore, the first thing to do is to check the temperature. If you do not have a water probe, contact your local company for more information. Some departments have provided these products and your representative can assist you. If your area does not have access to a water meter, contact your nearest aquarium development specialist (see list at the end of this post). Anyone who is concerned about the fishing industry should invest in some good machinery and learn how to use it. Fresh water access equipment can cost up to $ 200 and can save you thousands of dollars the first time you use it. Lack of oxygen is one of the main causes of dehydration in the pond, especially in summer. High levels of ammonia are also associated with infections that occur when the back is filled with vats or tanks. More information is available describing the oxygen system, ammonia system, and water quality control. Detect oxygen, ammonia, nitrites and pH during low water levels associated with back pain. Important considerations include total alkalinity, total energy, nitrates (brine system), and chlorine (if tap water is used). Naturally, daily data should be available for immediate use in the event of a backlash. This should include the fish stored date, fish size at collection time, fish location, feed rate, growth, daily loss, and water quality. This information is available to aquaculture professionals who work with you to solve fish disease problems. The good news, the description of the behavior and the body indicating the presence of fish, and the results of the water test make the doctor responsible for your complete information. Florida residents can get professional help from the University of Florida Department of Food and Agriculture (IFAS), Florida Support Extension Service. Ministry of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Ministry of Animal Industry and Ministry of Aquaculture, several laboratories and livestock. If you decide to send your fish to the hospital, you should collect the infected fish, put them in the freezer, then put them on ice and send them to the nearest place. Small fish can be transported in a plastic bag filled with water (30%). Gas can be pumped into the bag before the bag is filled. We recommend that you use live containers with live insulation due to low temperatures during travel. In addition to the fish sample, you should send the sample water collected in a clean pot. More information about the sample entry can be found on the UF / IFAS FA-55 Form, Fish Transfer for Test.
Types of fish diseases
There are two types of infections affecting the back: contagious and non-contagious. Bacterial pathogens are caused by bacteria in the environment or by other fish that carry it. They are contagious and may require treatment to control the onset of the disease. On the other hand, environmental problems, poor nutrition and genetic diseases all contribute to infectious diseases. They are not contagious, and they are not treated with drugs.
Infectious diseases
Infectious diseases are divided into different types of diseases, infections, viruses and fungi. Bacteria and fish are usually caused by microorganisms called protozoa that live in the surrounding water. There are several protozoa that affect the gills and the skin causing itching, weight gain and eventually death. Many protozoan diseases can be easily controlled with the help of oxalate such as copper sulfate, formalin, or potassium permanganate. Appropriate information on germs and suitable organic fishing equipment can be obtained from aquaculture development experts. Bacterial infections are usually internal and should be taken with foods that are FDA approved for use in fish. Infected fish often have bleeding or sores on the walls and around the eyes and mouth. They can also be large, have fluid in the abdomen and eyes. Bacterial infections can also cause skin blemishes, blemishes and irritation. Columnaris is an example of an external disease that can result from improper management. It is impossible to distinguish between disease and non-specific disease without special testing. They are not easy to diagnose, and there is no specific drug that can cure infections in the back. The most important bacterium that affects fish production in the southeastern United States is the herpes simplex virus. If you think an illness or disease is affecting your back, it is a good idea to talk to your veterinarian or back health professional. Fungal infections are the fourth most common type of disease. Fungal spores are found around water, but generally do not harm healthy fish. When the fish is exposed to ectoparasite, bacteria, or injuries through contact, the fungus can accumulate damaged tissue on the outside of the back. These areas may become sore or have a rusty appearance when fish and water are removed. Formalin or potassium permanganate is effective against many fungal infections. Because mold is often a secondary problem, it is important to diagnose and treat the first problem.
Non-infectious diseases
Non-bacterial bacteria can be divided into environmental, food, and genetic material. Environmentalists are the most important aquaculture industry. Environmental pollutants include low oxygen, high ammonia, high nitrite, or man-made or man-made pollutants. With proper water management, manufacturers can prevent many environmental diseases. Poor nutrition can be difficult to detect. A notable example of back pain is the "pain" caused by vitamin C deficiency. Lack of vitamin C in the diet reduces bone loss, leading to bone loss. Another important dietary problem with fish oil is “lack of blood”, which can be linked to folate deficiency. Injured fish can lead to anemia and death. The condition is likely to go away when enough food is not thrown in and fresh food is given. More information on fish nutrition can be obtained from aquaculture and veterinary specialists. Genetic variations include morphological quirks, such as leaving a tail or having another tail. Most of them are children. However, in order to reduce production, it is necessary to transfer unaffected fish for use as pork every few years.
Summary
Back pain can cause headaches for producers and pool owners. Many diseases occur in the fish that are caught and associated with irritants such as poor water, overcrowding, or poor nutrition. There are two main types of diseases that directly affect the choice of appropriate treatment.
Infectious diseases are caused by bacteria, bacteria, viruses or fungi. They often need medication to help the fish thrive. Non-communicable diseases abound in the environment, food and genetics. Many of these problems are changes in their management. Back pain is often complex, including contagious and non-contagious processes. Appropriate treatment often includes medication and cultural changes. With the help of the UF / IFAS Aquaculture Promotion Specialist, you can develop a management plan to control and prevent the spread of disease. For your convenience, a list of public laboratories that can be used to help diagnose back pain is provided at the end of this post. Many veterinarians want to see fish or farm animals in their practice. Your doctor may refer you to an English doctor.
