Cage fish farm act as a source of changes in the fish community of a Neotropical reservoir

Abstract: Brazil has shown an increase in cage fish farms activity in reservoirs. However, this activity shows potential to cause several changes in the environment with consequences in the structure of native fish fauna community. Thus, the hypothesis of this work is that three cage fish farms, located in the different areas of Chavantes reservoir, high Paraná basin, have potential to interfere with resident fish communities, modifying their structure. Fish were caught in twelve monthly field samplings around three cag… Show more

“…The relationship between fish diversity and biological invasions can be controversial (Halwart et al., ; Olden et al., ). Beyond the increase in the dominance of a few species and a decrease in biodiversity at the community level (Nobile et al., ), trophic mechanisms associated with invaders include higher nutrient cycling relative to that of the natural community (Attayde & Hansson, ; Lima et al., ; Vanni, ; Verant, Konsti, Zimmer, & Deans, ). Non‐native fish can drive alternate ecosystem states through predation interactions with natives and other non‐natives (Bezerra et al., ).…”

“…It is possible that its occurrence in the La Plata basin is related to aquaculture activities as has occurred in other regions (Coelho & Henry 2017). In many reservoirs of the La Plata basin, there are aquaculture activities, mainly with non-native fish species (Azevedo-Santos et al 2011, Nobile et al 2018. This rotifer may be introduced from cage aquaculture in upstream rivers (e.g., Grande and Paranapanema Rivers) and reached downstream areas where we captured it.…”

“…the structure of the wild ichthyofauna (Uglem et al, 2014;Ramos et al, 2013;Nobile et al, 2018) and increases in parasitic infection rates in wild fish (Ramos et al, 2014). Another important environmental influence caused by fish farms is the introduction of non-native species, with at least 32 registered entries (Ortega et al, 2015).…”
