"UAB scientists discovered that one species could feed another from its waste, without needing to use traditional food at all."

In this method of polyculture, scientists say "The sea urchin pellets are full of nutrients and healthy bacteria and, … help shrimp grow faster and larger than they did when consuming shrimp feed alone."

About this event

In an aquatic habitat fish populations are subjected to a multitude of stressors, including disease. Over the last three decades, bacterial and viral pathogens have decimated fish populations throughout the world. Sometimes this results in large numbers of dead fish in marine and freshwater environments. In some cases high mortality may take a species to the brink of extinction. This presentation gives an overview of conservation medicine as an emerging veterinary discipline with an emphasis on the role played by aquatic veterinarians in rehabilitating wild fish stocks and managing fish health issues.

A vet goes to a ladies house to treat her pet dog. After treatment he admires her aquarium with six goldfish of different varieties in it. 
The lady says, “yes they are lovely but I don’t know what sex they are” 
Vet “They are all females” 
Lady “How do you know that?” 

Vet “Because they all have their mouths opening and shutting continuously!” –

Sending this on behalf of my colleague…

Dear Australian/New Zealand Colleagues,

It is my pleasure to let you know that Australia is hosting the 3rd International Workshop on Symbiotic Copepoda on Heron Island 10-16 July next year.  This event will be led by international experts in the field and include seminars, practical workshop and local collections. It will also include one day dedicated to symbiotic Isopoda.

I am writing to ask if you could kindly distribute this flyer to your students, colleagues or anyone working in related fields that I may have missed.

Alternatively contact me with your expression of interest to register!

I look forward to seeing some of you on Heron Island next year,

With best regards,

Kate

Generally speaking, I recommend no salt at all (0g/L) when all is well.

If fish are stressed, or you’re treating fish with disease, then up to 2g/L if planted (plants do not tolerate high salt), or up to 5g/L in unplanted ponds.

Times of stress include fluctuating temperatures (as occurs in spring and autumn), or very cold temperatures (<10 degrees Celsius).

At times of disease, you’d use this in conjunction with most other treatments.

NB: g/L is equivalent to ppt (parts per thousand).
