Journal ArticleDOI

Tailfin clipping, a painful procedure: Studies on Nile tilapia and common carp

TL;DR: The differential response to clipping supports that this is a painful procedure that evokes a transient specific physiological status, and a series of key parameters for further studies were defined.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects of environmental enrichment and age-related differences on inhibitory avoidance in zebrafish (Danio rerio Hamilton).

TL;DR: The data show strong differences in inhibitory avoidance behavior between zebrafish of different ages and a clear reduction in avoidance behavior following housing under environmental enrichment.
Journal ArticleDOI

The impact of elevated water nitrate concentration on physiology, growth and feed intake of African catfish Clarias gariepinus (Burchell 1822)

TL;DR: The nitrite threshold concentration in rearing water of African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) was assessed and it was advised not to exceed a water nitrite concentration of 43 µM (0.6 mg L-1 NO2--N) to prevent the risk of reduced growth and feed intake in AfricanCatfish aquaculture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fish welfare in capture fisheries : A review of injuries and mortality

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of gear characteristics, fish characteristics and context variables on the external injuries and mortality of commercial capture fisheries is discussed. But the authors focus on trawls and hooks rather than on purse seines, gillnets, traps and seines.
Journal ArticleDOI

Percussion and electrical stunning of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) after dewatering and subsequent effect on brain and heart activities

TL;DR: It is concluded that if sufficient force is used the fish will be rendered unconscious insensible which result in damage of the carcass, whereas a combined AC and DC can be recommended source for dry electrical head to body stunning.
