An overview of cleaner fish use in Ireland [PDF]
Journal of Fish Diseases, 2017 AbstractSea lice infestations represent one of the most significant challenges facing the salmon farming industry, giving rise to lost production, additional costs of treatment and potential negative interactions with wild stocks. At present, cleaner fish, which actively remove lice from salmon, are an effective, biological, long‐term option which has ...

The serotonin blocker Ketanserin reduces coral reef fish Ctenochaetus striatus aggressive behaviour during between-species social interactions [PDF]
PeerJA multitude of species engages in social interactions not only with their conspecifics but also with other species. Such interspecific interactions can be either positive, like helping, or negative, like aggressive behaviour.

Physiological Effects of Recapture and Transport from Net-Cages in Lumpfish
Fishes, 2022 Lumpfish are widely used for removing sea lice in salmonid sea-based aquaculture. If these fish are to be harvested and used for human consumption, it is necessary to know how the physical strain associated with removing the lumpfish from the net-cages ...
