Lumpfish in Norway is currently produced in traditional flow-through systems (FTS). Hatcheries frequently show signs of bacterial infections, unstable microbial communities in the rearing water and varying mortality. Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) is proposed to create stable and healthy mi...

This paper presents a study of traditional netting materials subjected to disinfecting chemicals during fish farming and treatment of net cages. A series of tests were performed in order to study the effect of various concentrations of disinfecting chemicals on the tensile strength of Raschel knitte...

Motivated by the need for additional tools to disinfect discharge water from well boats, and to prevent distribution of salmon lice, the effect of ultrasonic cavitation on the planktonic stages of the salmon louse, nauplii and copepodids, as well as marine heterotrophic bacteria, and the marine gree...

Målet med forsøket var å dokumentere bakteriesammensetningen i copepoder som dyrkes opp hos kundene til C-Feed. Fordi ulike vannkvaliteter er vist å gi ulik bakteriesammensetning i levendefôr, var det et mål å se om ulik vannbehandling gav copepoder med ulikt bakte...

Biofouling is a serious problem in marine finfish aquaculture with a number of negative impacts. Marine growth obstructs net openings, thereby reducing water exchange through the net and affecting fish welfare and health, as well as the spreading of dissolved nutrients, particles and pathogens. Furt...
