The use of lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) as a cleaner fish to fight sea lice infestation in farmed Atlantic salmon has become increasingly common. Still, tools to increase our knowledge about lumpfish biology are lacking.

Cryopreservation of lumpfish Cyclopterus lumpus (Linnaeus, 1758) milt
This study has established a successful protocol to cryopreserve lumpfish Cyclopterus lumpus (Linnaeus, 1758) milt. Three cryosolutions were tested based on Mounib’s medium; the original medium including reduced l-glutathione (L-Glu), the basic sucrose and potassium bicarbonate medium without L-Glu,

Consumer’s perception and acceptance of lumpfish used in salmon cages
AbstractLumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) are used as cleaner fish in salmon aquaculture to treat sea lice. However, after 18–24 months and reaching 0.4–0.6 kg, the fish is removed from the salmon cage and usually discarded, which raises social, economic, and environmental challenges, as well as ethical concerns.

Lumpfish is the most important cleanerfish species in Atlantic salmon farming. Detailed information on the gonadal maturation process is a prerequisite for year-round production of juvenile lumpfish. In the present study we have described physiological, morphological and endocrine events associated with the annual reproductive cycle in lumpfish of both

Anaesthesia of Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) fries. v1 [PDF]
Large numbers of lumpfish are produced for the Norwegian salmon industry and are used to combat sea lice infestations. The present work tested the efficacy of three anaesthetic chemicals on lumpfish fries (average weight of 0.97 g).

Abstract Broodstock management in aquaculture aims to optimise larval production to meet farm demand, which requires precise monitoring of the reproductive cycle. Traditional methods such as histology often require killing of fish, making them unsuitable for monitoring reproductive dynamics at fish level.

Fish welfare in a changing world: New developments and current challenges
Abstract The welfare of non‐human animals is central to ethical discussions on animal use, with increasing attention to fish welfare across research, aquaria, aquaculture, and fisheries. This paper reviews current theoretical approaches to animal welfare and recent advances in defining and assessing fish welfare since the seminal paper by Huntingford ...
