Fish Trade

Ornamental fish trade between regions in Indonesia allows the transfer of disease, especially if the disease does not show clinical symptoms in fish traded. Koi fish in Tahuna, North Sulawesi, mostly come from the area of ​​East Java, which is one area with many cases of myxobolusis. In addition, the potential for parasitic diseases that come along when koi fish are brought between areas cannot be avoided, because the examination of parasites, especially Myxobolus sp. no longer listed in the regulation as a quarantine inspection requirement. The purpose of this study was to see the Myxobolus sp infestation that infected koi in Tahuna, North Sulawesi, although there were no clinical symptoms using conventional techniques and histopathology. The results of the examination showed Myxobolus spore infestation on the gills of the koi, although the amount was not much, both conventional and histopathological techniques. This shows that our level of awareness of the types of parasites that can infect fish is still lacking. Myxobolus sp is only transmitted through the spore stage back and forth; there is no horizontal or vertical transmission in fish or tubifex T worm populations. More knowledge regarding the life cycle of the Myxobolus sp. in order to obtain the right handling to deal with outbreaks, especially water quality management at the location of the cultivation.

Ornamental fishes are the most popular pet throughout the world and high demand for these fishes has made them an important component of the world fish trade. India contributes a very meager percentage to the world ornamental fish trade; but considering the high ichthyofaunal diversity it has the potential to compete with the world’s leading ornamental fish producers in the near future. Sundarban Biosphere Reserve has abundant waterbodies with rich fish diversity. Although some research has been carried out on ichthyofaunal resources of the Sundarban; detailed documentation on freshwater indigenous ornamental ichthyofaunal resources of this region is still not available. To fill this knowledge gap, the present study has been conducted to list the indigenous ornamental ichthyofaunal resources of the Sundarban Biosphere Reserve along with their conservation status and their prospective utilization for improved livelihood of local communities. Eighty four species belonging to 11 orders, 28 families and 59 genera were collected from the study area with species representing the order Cypriniformes dominating the ichthyofauna. Nine species have been listed as Near Threatened in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species™. Indigenous fish species of the Sundarban having great potential to support domestic as well as the international ornamental fish trade from India in near future. The ornamental fish species would also be able to generate alternate livelihood options for the impecunious communities of the Sundarban. However, serious concern must also be paid to the conservation of these fish species as some of them are under near threatened categories of IUCN Red list.

The Banggai cardinalfish Pterapogon kauderni is the Indonesian national marine ornamental fish mascot, and an object of national and international conservation concern. The endemic population of this species is limited to the Banggai Archipelago in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia and a few nearby islands in North Maluku. In addition, introduced populations have become established, mainly along ornamental fish trade routes. The National Action Plan for Banggai Cardinalfish Conservation (NAP-BCFC) calls for monitoring and management of all P. kauderni populations. A survey of the Luwuk introduced P. kauderni population was carried out in October 2021.   Data were collected at three sites with established P. kauderni populations: the ferry harbour, public harbour (Teluk Lalong) and a recreational area on the nearby coast (Kilo 5). P. kauderni were recorded by microhabitat association and size class (recruits, juveniles, adults). Data collected were compared with data from previous surveys where available. With the exception of one group in a sea anemone at Kilo 5, all P. kauderni were associated with Diadema sea urchins (D. setosum at all sites; D. savignyi at Kilo 5). At Kilo 5 P. kauderni the population structure indicates the possible capture of market-sized juveniles. Overall abundance was also lower compared to the polluted but unfished harbours. The proportion of recruits was significantly negatively correlated with the ratio of adult P. kauderni to Diadema urchins. The results will inform regional legislation currently in preparation to support sustainable management of P. kauderni populations, habitat and microhabitat in Central Sulawesi, as well as contributing to NAP-BCFC targets.Keywords:Banggai cardinalfishEndangered speciesDiademaMicrohabitat,MonitoringOrnamental fisheryLocal regulation

The global ornamental fish trade is a rapidly growing industry. Cultivation and propagation of ornamental fishes have been increasing in the last 20 years in Iran. Discus (Symphysodon aequifasciatus) from Cichlidae is one of the most popular and expensive aquarium fish. In the past few years farming of this fish has been well developed in Iran. Two breeder discus fish (Symphysodon aequifasciatus) from two different propagation centres (with high mortality) with signs of anorexia, loss of balance, moribundity and darkness in skin colour were referred to Laboratory of Aquatic Diseases of Veterinary Faculty, University of Tehran. After the survey of ectoparasites, necropsy was performed under aseptic conditions; bacterial culture on standard media was done and the alimentary canal was extruded. In both fish no ectoparasite was detected and no bacteria from these cases grew on the standard media. In internal survey 5 and 25 nematodes were detected in each fish. A high number of free eggs were observed in intestine of fish. Regarding morphological characteristics of the nematodes and their eggs, they were identified as Capillaria sp. Treatment of other fish with levamisole was effective and the loss was terminated. Some helminthes like Capillaria pterophylli Heinze, 1933, can cause a high mortality in cichlid aquarium fishes. This study showed that infection with some species of Capillaria could cause a heavy loss in ornamental fish from Cichlidae. Diagnosis of parasites of these fishes can help us to prevent high mortalities.

In the present study, induced breeding of endemic barb, Dawkinsia filamentosa was carried out using three different synthetic hormones namely Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), WOVA-FH and Ovatide at different (0.3, 0.5, 0.7 and 0.9 ml/Kg) doses. All synthetic hormones showed good performance at 0.7 ml/kg body weight. Comparatively WOVA-FH showed better performance with higher number of spawned eggs (1405±5.74 nos/female) and hatching rate (90±0.6%). The study concluded that WOVA-FH at 0.7 ml/kg is an ideal for induced breeding of D. filamentosa. Fertilised eggs were golden in colour with an orange tinge. Hatching took place 34- 36 hrs (26±0.50C) of post fertilization. Yolk sac remained up to 60 hrs of post hatching. Complete developmental stages of D. filamentosa from egg to adult were recorded in captive condition. The present study aids in introducing hatchery-bred seeds of valuable indigenous fish Dawkinsia filamentosa into the ornamental fish trade. Availability of hatchery seed may reduce the wild exploitation and contributes to the conservation of the natural resources.
