چکیده
This study aimed to identify the cause of sustained mortality in freshwater angelfish (Pterophyllum scalare Schultze, 1823) kept at an ornamental fish production facility Türkiye. Parasitological, bacteriological and histopathological examination were performed on moribund hybrid individuals. The had haemorrhaged eyes, darkened skin, scale loss, ascites false faeces. A pale liver, splenomegaly a thinning intestinal wall observed internally. parasitological revealed flagellated protozoan endoparasite Spironucleus sp. intestine. number changes including lipid degeneration hemosiderin deposits as well granulomas spleen, large mast cells lamina propria intestine enteritis. Numerous parasites seen wall. According physiological biochemical tests, bacterial isolates obtained from visceral organs some identified Citrobacter freundii. After oral metronidazole treatment, with dose 50 mg/kg daily for 5 days, decrease resumed feeding noted. chronic spironucleosis, which systemically affects by penetrating mucosa, was this angelfish.

Growth and reproductive performance by different feed types in fresh water angelfish (Pterophyllum scalare Schultze, 1823)
It is well established that reproduction is sensitive to the state of energy reserves, and that there is a balance between energy homeostasis and fertility. In this view, this study examined the effects of different diets on growth and reproductive performance of fresh water angelfish. Twenty four pairs of angelfish (weighing 3.58 ± 0.24 g) were fed with four types of diets including live earth...

متن کاملPreliminary morphometrics of spleen and kidney macrophage aggregates in clinically normal blue gourami Trichogaster trichopterus and freshwater angelfish Pterophyllum scalare.
Macrophage aggregate (MA) morphometry and pigment composition are believed to be dependent on the species, age, and health status of the fish. The aim of this study was to characterize a "normal" morphometry baseline of spleen and kidney MAs in blue gourami Trichogaster trichopterus and freshwater angelfish Pterophyllum scalare. Three size-classes of clinically normal fish were analyzed. Blue g...
