Rickettsial Infections This infection is not recorded yet from Indian waters, systemic rickettsial infections were reported from cultured P. monodon from Malaysia and Singapore. In P. monodon, the rickettsia occurred within large cytoplasmic vacuoles where it formed-microcolonies of 19 to 33 f.lm in diameter. In heavy infections, cells with rickettsial inclusions were widespread in mesodermally and ectodermally derived tissues, but absent in endodermally derived tissues such as midgut, hepatopancreas and caeca. Experimental treatment using medicated feeds containing 1.5 to 2. 0 kg of oxytetracycline per 1000 kg  offered  was found to be successful in reducing monalities. Vibriosis Vibrio sp. were found to constitute the predominant normal microflora of the culturable species of shrimps. Due to their rich presence in the shrimp's microflora, researchers have found Vibrio sp. as frequent and opponunistic pathogen of the shrimps. The opponunistic pathogenic Vibrio s...

Biosecurity involves following strict management protocols to prevent specific pathogens from entering a system or reducing the numbers. A good understanding of pathogen reservoirs is important. Quarantine, sanitation and disinfection are all important components of biosecurity . Quarantine , defined as the isolation of an organism or group of organisms to prevent the introduction or spread of infectious disease, is a standard procedure that is extremely important in aquaculture. In practical terms, quarantine is a standard set of procedures that should be observed to prevent the introduction of pathogens or diseases into a population of fish, prawn and shrimp in aquaculture. The quarantine protocols should be strictly adhered and should follow as many of the following protocols as are practical: testing of a sample of shrimp, prawn and fish prior to bringing them onto the facility. all-in, all-out stocking procedures. isolation or separation from other populations for ...

One of the inherent elements of characteristic aquatic ecosystems environments is the practically entire reusing of feed materials through the natural biological food web. Fish discharges are metabolized by microorganisms, reaped thus by planktonic creatures (potentially reused inside, e.g. algea control harvested gathered by zooplankton) and in the long run back to the fish. This element is still fundamental in broad culture lakes, however its part decreases as stocking thickness ( pond escalation ) is expanded. Organic loads The organic load in the more escalated pond is high, and an expansive portion of the organic matter settles onto the oxygen-restricted pond base, making anaerobic conditions, backing off the bio-reusing grouping and notwithstanding prompting to the generation of lethal mixes. What's more, the high feed load, stratification, and restricted oxygen supply will prompt to the restraint of nitrogenous waste digestion system, including the ...

Pond Preparation and Management Prior to a Pond can be supplied for another product, the extreme squanders, which collect in the pond amid the past harvest, must be evacuated and the dirt and water molded. Developing of shrimp in a disgracefully arranged lake may prompt to trouble in lake administration amid the way of life period, which could bring about a lessening underway limit of the lake. Pond Cleaning The cleaning of a Pond or evacuation of the squanders, particularly the natural and phosphatic squanders that have amassed in the lake base could be, expert by drying, liming and furrowing. In any case, these strategies could in any case leave an unfriendly impact on the water and soil quality in the lake, which could bring about a decline in the generation limit of the lake. There are two strategies for cleaning a lake as per the likelihood of the lake to be dried: Dry Method This strategy is utilized when the pond base can be dried tota...

Application of Probiotics: Probiotic action is interceded by an assortment of impacts that are subject to the probiotic itself, the measurement utilised, treatment length and course, and recurrence of conveyance. A few probiotics apply their valuable impacts by expounding antibacterial atoms, for example, bacteriocins that straightforwardly repress other microbes or infections, effectively taking an interest in the battle against diseases, while others restrain bacterial development over the gut divider (translocation), improve the mucous obstruction work by expanding the generation of inborn insusceptible particles, or regulate the provocative/resistant reaction. A few studies have shown that example acknowledgment receptors (PRPs, for example, toll-like receptors (TLRs) flagging pathways, insusceptible reactions, and the emission of antimicrobial peptides, for example, defensins and chemokines by the epithelium assume essential parts in these instruments. Here are a few...
