Fish healthGILLSFISH HEALTHSMOLTBEHAVIOR
What is gill shortening and what casues and potential remedies exist?

Gill shortening is a poorly documented syndrome with unknown causes


PhysiologySMOLTIFICATIONDOCUMENTATIONSMOLTPHYSIOLOGY
What are the effects of regimes used in smolt phase, and how are they correlated for different types of smolt and time of deployment

There is a need to updated methods and documentation of smoltification and optimal smolt deployment


PhysiologyEARLY MATURATIONSMOLTRASSEA-PHASE

ProductionRASMANAGEMENTCHEMISTRYBACTERIAFILTER
Can storage of water in magazines stabilize the overall production in RAS systems?

The most dangerous phase in a RAS system is when the tank is empty, and can give room for opportunitisic bacteria to grow
