At the local scale, cleaner fish are thought to have a disproportionate effect, in relation to their abundance and size, on the activity of many other fish species, but confirmation of this species' effect on local fish diversity has proved elusive. The ...
متن کاملFloating faeces for a cleaner fish production
Recent developments in European recirculating aquaculture systems suggest expanding potential for this extremely water-efficient technique. However, the technology still faces challenges due to concerns over economic efficiency and system stability—both essential in minimizing the risk of financially and environmentally expensive failures. One key factor in maintaining stable production conditi...
