The article cites a study which analyzes the cause of gill disease leading to progressive low-level mortalities among juvenile turbot, Scophthalmus maximus L., in a Scottish aquarium. The mechanical removal of the biofilm from the aquarium walls and immersion of the fish in 20mg of chloramine T led to an abatement of the disease within 7 days of completing the treatment. There is some controversy over the precise role of Vibrio alginolyticus as a fish pathogen. The present study shows that Vibrio alginolyticus constitutes an opportunistic invader of already damaged tissues or a weak pathogen of stressed fish. |
