The Deep‐Sea Preyscapes of Mammalian Top Predators
Deep‐sea predator foraging is shaped by prey richness, accessibility, and density. Using eDNA and acoustics, we mapped fish and cephalopod communities across inshore‐offshore gradients around the Azores in foraging habitats of three co‐occurring deep‐diving toothed whales.

Tolerance of juvenile lumpfish (Cyclopterus Lumpus) to high rearing densities
Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) are raised as cleaner fish for controlling sea lice. Intensive rearing is complicated by fin nipping that occurs between juvenile conspecifics.

The study compared trawl and eDNA metabarcoding of demersal fish communities in an open ocean environment around the Faroe Islands. eDNA provided a comparable assessment of demersal species biomass and revealed additional spatial information on keystone species known to be under‐sampled by demersal trawls due to size and behavioral traits.

Welfare Indicators for Aquaculture Research: Toolboxes for Five Farmed European Fish Species
ABSTRACT Refining approaches to measuring, monitoring and appraising animal welfare in aquaculture research is key to (i) protecting and optimizing it, (ii) documenting the severity of how and when it deviates, and (iii) ensuring good scientific quality, reliable results and reproducibility, amongst other factors.

Condition factor tailored to lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) used as cleaner fish in salmonid farms
Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) are extensively used as part of the control measures against salmon lice in fish farms. In recent years, there has been an increased focus on lumpfish welfare, and how to increase survival of lumpfish during production.

Despite the increasing use of plant‐based energy ingredients in aquaculture, few studies have evaluated the digestibility of practical diets formulated with these ingredients in an integrated manner with the metabolic responses, intestinal health, and productive performance of fish. This limits the understanding of their nutritional effects. This study

Fish Pathogens and Associated Zoonotic Risks in Aquaculture: A Global One Health Perspective
ABSTRACT Aquaculture sector is a key contributor to global food and nutritional security, yet its rapid intensification has heightened concerns about the emergence and spread of zoonotic fish pathogens that threaten human, animal and environmental health.

Fish welfare based classification method of ocean current speeds at aquaculture sites
A major trend in marine aquaculture is to move production to more exposed sites with occasionally rough ocean current events. However, it is unclear whether fish will thrive in these extreme environments, since thorough descriptions of ambient current ...
