Preventing and treating blood infections in fish

Habitat is an important factor in the process of raising fish in ponds, cages and pens. Good management of the environment (water sources, treatment of pond bottoms and algae .) will limit pathogens affecting fish development.

In addition, when the weather changes from the dry season to the rainy season, fish are often "shocked", pathogens in the environment have conditions to attack, fish are susceptible to disease. One of the most common diseases at the moment is blood infection in fish.

Pham Chi Nguyen's family in My Quy Ward (Long Xuyen City - An Giang) invested nearly 50 million dong to build 3 cement tanks for snakehead fish.

Each of his tanks stocked 5,000 fingerlings, applying the process of pumping water regularly to keep the water clean, the fish grew fast. At first, Mr. Nguyen was fed with sea fish or ground snail, but after a short time, the water source was polluted quite badly. After two months of raising fish, it lost nearly half. Catch diseased fish and observe that the body and mouth are bleeding and many sores and fins are torn or amputated; The organ is also bleeding or swollen, it is unclear what the disease is, so the treatment is very difficult.

According to extension workers, if bleeding occurs on the body, fins, mouth and viscera, the fish has a harmful blood infection. The disease occurs in pangasius, basa fish, pompano, copy, red chili, grass and snakehead fish. Critically ill fish can die massively, if it is seed fish, it can die 100%.

According to KS. Dang Hong Duc, Head of Fisheries Division, a joint venture of Bio Pharmachemie, good management of farming environment will contribute to reducing harmful pathogens . In addition, when raising fish, farmers need to improve their ponds, clean their rafts and choose healthy breeds. Do not feed fish directly to raw fish, but steam it to eliminate pathogens. Dead fish must quickly pick up and bury concentratedly with lime treatment, should not be thrown out of rivers and can easily cause disease for surrounding aquaculture models.

In order to prevent blood infections on fish, in addition to good management of culture environment, it is necessary to periodically treat once-a-day substrate with BIOZEOGEEN or BIO YUCCA. If the fish has the phenomenon of 'shock' at the time of the season, immediately use BIO ANTISHOCK or BIO GLUCCAMIX to enhance immunity. When fish are infected with blood infection, strong and special antibiotics such as ENROFLOXACIN, OXOCOL should be used , mixed into food, fed 5-7 consecutive days, then used digestive enzymes such as BIO ZYME or NUTRIFISH to help fish Eat more and recover quickly.
