One of the main costs of the marine fish farms is the extruded feed. This paper discusses many issues given when fish, mussels, oysters or other shellfish are fed and their relation with the sustainability. There are several simulator software for fish growth and there are several published models for sustainability, but, as far as we know, there are very few simulator software for marine fish ...

samples from the kidney of 100 diseased fish with signs of haemorrhagic septicemia and 50 samples from outlet water of fish farms were taken aseptically and cultured. in the laboratory, 75 colonies of gram-negative bacteria were biochemically diagnosed as motile aeromonads in our bacteriology laboratory unit using api 20e rapid identification system. the genotype identification using specific p...

As the global demand for seaweed-derived products drives the expansion of seaweed farming onto shallow coral ecosystems, the effects of farms on fish assemblages remain largely unexplored. Shallow coral reefs provide food and shelter for highly diverse fish assemblages but are increasingly modified by anthropogenic activities. We hypothesized that the introduction of seaweed farms into degraded...

Sharks are found in association with main Hawaiian Island ocean fish farms more frequently and at higher densities than is typical for coastal Hawaiian waters. Sharks attracted to fish farms could potentially threaten human water users, interact negatively with other fisheries, and seasonal migrations could be disrupted if individuals become entrained around farms throughout the year. We hypoth...

Intensive aquaculture is adopted by more and more fish farms in China. This paper focuses on the typical water monitoring and controlling methods in intensive fish culture in Chinese fish farms. The paper illustrates the main factors in fish culturing and the way to control them: dissolved oxygen (DO), temperature, PH, particulate matter and ammonium.

The objective of this work was to evaluate a Bayesian model-based clustering method to identify the strains of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) individuals from fish farms in Southern Brazil. Assignment methods using nine microsatellite loci were applied to differentiate individuals of five reference strains (GIFT, GST, Nilótica, Chitralada, and Saint Peter) and to identify individuals of u...

One of the main costs of the marine farms is the extruded feed. This paper discusses many issues given when fish, mussels, oysters or other shellfish are fed. Several published systems for sustainability are also described. Authors will propose a simulator based on underwater wireless sensors that will solve issues aforementioned giving sustainability for marine farms. Because sensors are not w...
