Popis: Meningitis is a characteristic clinical manifestation in GIFT tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) infected with Streptococcus agalactiae. Fish that are infected with Streptococcus agalactiae and survive often show neurological disorders, such as constant, aberrant swimming. In the current study, the critical swimming speed (Ucrit) of farmed fish was investigated. The Ucrit of tilapia infected with S. agalactiae decreased to 2.78 BL s−1, 3.05 BL s−1 and 2.94 BL s−1 at 4, 8 and 16 h after challenge, respectively (P
