“…The experimental period was during the transition from a period of active feeding to a more inactive overwintering period, the seasonal water parameter variation may affect the growth of bighead carp after surgery. Our results were similar to a common carp study which showed that relatively low temperature and feeding rate were the main reasons for the decrease in growth after transmitters were surgically implanted in fish (Penne et al 2007). The decrease in growth for the control group 56 days after surgery might also be attributed to the seasonal water parameter variations.…”

“…Still others believe that the size of the transmitters and their adhesion should be considered. Larger transmitters encapsulated in a fibrous capsule might enhance the adhesion rate with the intestinal body wall or intestinal tract and help transmitters stay in the body, while smaller transmitters might wear the body wall or intestinal tract due to less tissue adhesion, causing expulsion of the transmitters though the worn channel (Penne et al 2007). In the current study, it was difficult to judge retention or expulsion of transmitters was affected based only on the existence of fibrous capsule tissue.…”

“…Many researchers have shown that carp were likely to expel transmitters or die after surgically implanted with transmitters (Stuart and Jones 2002;Okland et al 2003;Penne et al 2007;Daniel et al 2009). Whether the same holds true for bighead carp is still unknown.…”

The effects of surgically implanted dummy ultrasonic transmitters on growth, survival and transmitter retention of bighead carp Hypophthalmichthys nobilis were investigated from October to November 2010. Before the surgery, 162 bighead carps were divided into three groups: 1) control group: handling but no tagging; 2) sham group: surgical procedure without implantation of dummy ultrasonic transmitter; 3) surgery group: surgical implantation of dummy ultrasonic transmitters. Growth, survival, incision healing, suture loss and transmitter retention of bighead carp were recorded and analyzed respectively at 14, 28 and 56 days after surgery. The results showed that surgical implantation of dummy ultrasonic transmitters had a significantly negative influence on growth of bighead carp, however, the negative influence was negligible 28 days after surgery. No fish died during the experimental period. All incisions had completely healed 56 days after surgery, but sutures remained in 21 fish, and the suture loss rate was 70.8 %. All fish with suture retention had suffered light infection over the incision sites. No dummy ultrasonic transmitters were expelled 56 days after the surgery. Except for three transmitters, all the remaining transmitters were completely encapsulated in a fibrous capsule and adhered to the body wall, intestinal tract or viscera 56 days after surgery. The above results suggested that telemetry research could be conducted on bighead carp within 56 days after surgical implantation of ultrasonic transmitters.

“…This encapsulation protected the transmitter, preventing tag expulsion through the incision site or transintestinal expulsion. In fact, the rapid encapsulation of the transmitter has been shown to play a role in retention by limiting its mobility and minimizing the risk of organ damage (Thoreau & Baras, 1997;Penne et al, 2007;Luo et al, 2015). Additionally, the effect of encapsulation processes and incision site on wound healing and tag retention should also be investigated in future studies.…”

“…To alleviate or suppress such complications, several studies have investigated the factors associated with the adverse effects from surgical tagging, including type of anesthetic used for anesthesia and immobilization (King et al, 2005;Carter, 2011;Vandergoot et al, 2011;Javahery et al, 2012;Trushenski et al, 2012;Kanani, 2013), transmitter type and size and its relationship with fish size (Penne et al, 2007;Thorstad et al, 2009), surgeon experience (Smith et al, 2009;Brown et al, 2011;Cooke et al, 2011b), as well as sterilization of transmitters and surgical instruments, attachment methods, incision type and location, and suture material and pattern (Cooke et al, 2003;Wagner et al, 2011;Brown et al, 2013).…”

Implantation of telemetry transmitters in fish can be affected by different parameters. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of type of anesthetic, tag size, and surgeon experience on surgical and postsurgical wound healing in the neotropical fish Prochilodus lineatus. In total, eighty fish were surgically implanted with telemetry transmitters and forty fish were kept as controls. Forty fish were implanted with a small tag and other forty were implanted with a large tag. Similarly, forty fish were anesthetized with eugenol and forty fish were anesthetized by electroanesthesia, and forty surgeries were performed by an expert surgeon and forty surgeries were performed by novice surgeons. At the end of the experimental period seventeen (21.3%) tagged fish had postsurgical complications, including death (1.3%), tag expulsion (2.5%), antenna migration (2.5%), and infection (15%). Tag size was the key determinant for postsurgical complications. Surgical details and postsurgical wound healing were not affected by type of anesthetic. Incision size, duration of surgery, and wound area were significantly affected by tag size and surgeon experience, and the number of sutures was significantly affected by tag size only. The results indicate that successful implantation of telemetry transmitters is dependent upon surgeon experience and tag size.A implantação de transmissores em peixes pode ser afetada por diversos aspectos. Este estudo objetivou avaliar a influência do tamanho do transmissor, do tipo de anestésico e da experiência do cirurgião em parâmetros cirúrgicos e recuperação pós-cirúrgica do peixe neotropical Prochilodus lineatus. Foram marcados oitenta indivíduos com transmissores de telemetria, enquanto outros quarenta foram utilizados como controle. Quarenta indivíduos foram marcados com um transmissor pequeno e outros quarenta com um transmissor maior. Foram utilizados dois tipos de anestésico sendo quarenta indivíduos anestesiados por eletronarcose e outros 40 por eugenol e as cirurgias foram realizadas por dois grupos de cirurgiões, experientes e inexperientes com quarenta peixes em cada grupo. Dezessete peixes (21,3%) apresentaram impactos diretos resultantes da cirurgia como o óbito (1,3%), perda do transmissor (2,5%), migração da antena (2,5%) e infecções internas (15%). Estes efeitos estão ligados ao tamanho do transmissor utilizado. A experiência do cirurgião possui relação direta em três parâmetros cirúrgicos (tamanho da incisão, tempo de cirurgia e área de cicatrização). O tamanho dos transmissores utilizados possui relação com quatro parâmetros (tamanho da incisão cirúrgica, número de suturas utilizadas, tempo de cirurgia e área de cicatrização). O anestésico não teve relação com os parâmetros cirúrgicos. Os resultados indicam que tanto a dimensão dos transmissores quanto a experiência dos cirurgiões têm impacto direto no sucesso de implantação dos transmissores.

Management of Pacific halibut (Hippoglossus stenolepis), a long-lived flatfish, is complicated by possible ontogenic and sex-specific variation in migration. Archival tags promise the ability to help uncover long-term movement patterns at the individual level, if the tags can be retained and recovered from healthy fish. We examined fifteen individuals (69-90 cm fork length) for long-term physiological response to intracoelomic implantation of three types of archival tags: fully internal, internal with right angle protruding light stalk, and internal with straight protruding light stalk. Tags represented 0.05-0.16% of initial fish weights. Fish were reared at 10.8 ± 1.1°C for 59 weeks post-surgery. One fish died after 39 weeks from thermal stress unrelated to the surgical procedure. Temporal variation in behavior of tagged fish was indistinguishable from that of controls (n = 15 tagged, 5 controls). Treatment and controlgroup fish grew at similar rates. No tag expulsion or physiological response was evident in the individual that died at 39 weeks, but nine of eleven individuals dissected at the end of 59 weeks had developed internal responses. These responses ranged from deposition of fibrous protein and/or calcitic material on tag surfaces to partial or full tag encapsulation in either the visceral peritoneal layer (fully-internal tags) or the intestinal mesenteries (stalk-bearing tags). The responses were within the range reported for other pleuronectids implanted with tags of similar configuration and may have implications for design and interpretation of long-term tagging studies. Encapsulation may reduce the probability of tag recoveries even in the absence of tag expulsion, especially in species eviscerated at sea.
