Pervasiveness and management status of assorted fish diseases alongside comparison of their health

Abstract

Fish are the most plentiful and beneficial aquatic animals that enrich human meals with protein, which is critical in maintaining their health and managing illnesses. This entails anything from constructing ponds to determining the incidence of diseases, diagnosing and treating them, providing medication, and other essential operations. The objectives of this study are to assess the health, illness control, and survival rate of aquatic animals in a mixed culture system. To study these facts, data on preventive and hygienic measures, disease and abnormalities, medication, mortality and survival rates in mix culture system were gathered and analyzed for ten different fish species. Compounds such as disinfectants and fertilizers were mostly employed in the preventative protocol, while antibiotics, disinfectants, and oxygen enhancers were the primary drugs utilized for healing diseases. The investigation found the highest frequency of epizootic ulcerative syndrome (EUS) at 29.17%, followed by dropsy, chilodonella infestation, argulosis, gill rot, and hypoxemia. Tilapia, rohu, mrigal, kalbasu, common carp, silver carp, sarpunti, and bata showed higher healthiness that was significant (P<0.05)compared to catla and sutchi catfish. It was concluded that aquatic animal health and disease management is not solely comprised of pond preparation, preventative measures, disease detection, treatment, and good management, but it is additionally impacted by the variety or species of fish cultivated simultaneously.
