Influence of Tank Coloration in Modulating Physiological Growth, Survival and Skin Pigmentation Expression in Nursery‐Reared Channa striata

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Tank colour is a crucial environmental factor that influences growth performance; however, its effect on Channa striata fry under laboratory environments is not widely recognized. This study investigated the influence of tank coloration on growth, survival, cannibalism, and pigmentation of C. striata larvae under nursery rearing conditions.

Fisher Perceptions and Management Challenges in KwaZulu‐Natal's Inland Water Bodies

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Inland fisheries in South Africa are crucial for the livelihoods of local communities, but they face pressures that threaten the sustainability of small‐scale and recreational fishers livelihoods, the latter making the dominant economic contribution. However, distinctions between small‐scale and recreational fishing rights are unclear.

River Connectivity in Dammed Areas Studied Through Environmental DNA Metabarcoding at Community and Species Levels

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The field of environmental DNA (eDNA) is rapidly expanding with established applications in biodiversity monitoring, rare species detection and ecological assessment. However, its potential to evaluate species connectivity in fragmented aquatic systems remains underexplored.

Evaluating the Risk of Collision of Seals Swimming Within Metres of Operating Tidal Turbines

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT We used imaging sonar to continuously monitor wildlife at an operational tidal turbine in the Pentland Firth, Scotland, between May 2022 and June 2023. Of 704 detected seal tracks, 347 occurred during turbine operation and 122 of these were detected directly upstream of the rotating blades in the horizontal plane.

What to Expect After a Commercial Fishery Ban? Long Term Fish Size and Biomass Trends in Two Productive Water Bodies With Contrasting Management Regimes

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Commercial fishing is often assumed to have greater impacts than recreational fishing, and many fisheries assessments overlook the latter. Yet, numerous coastal and freshwater fish populations are subject to both fishing types and environmental pressures, all influencing biomass, body size and community structure and making management outcomes
