There is increasing awareness of the negative effects of mycotoxins in aquatic species, which is highlighted in recent publications. Partly due to climate change associated with an overall increase of mycotoxins contamination in plant ingredients, and also due to the tendency to replace expensive animal‐derived proteins, such as fish meal, by more economical plant proteins sources, which increases the probability of mycotoxin contamination in aquaculture feeds (Hooft et al. ). Over a 1‐year period, 41 samples of finished aquaculture feed, both shrimp and fish, were analysed within the scope of BIOMIN mycotoxin survey programme. The samples were tested for aflatoxins, zearalenone, deoxynivalenol, fumonisins and ochratoxin A. Samples were sourced in Asia (31 samples) and Europe (10 samples) from fish/shrimp farms or feed producers. The values detected pose a risk for several important aquaculture species, assuming single mycotoxin contamination, that is excluding possible additive and synergetic effects between mycotoxins. Co‐occurrence of mycotoxins in feeds may induce synergistic effects and increase the negative impact of mycotoxins in aquatic‐farmed species at lower levels than when present in single contamination. This review gives an overview of the different mycotoxins and revises the effects of mycotoxins in aquatic species. Additionally, it reports the levels of mycotoxins in aquafeeds in 2014 and compares detected levels with possible negative effects in fish and shrimp. As it is highlighted by the results of the survey, the risk of co‐occurrence is high and the knowledge on the effects of multimycotoxins contamination in aquatic species is basically none.

“…All the aquaculture species tested for sensitivity to FUM to date (Ictalurus punctatus [Goel et al, 1994;Li, Raverty, & Robinson, 1994;Lumlertdacha & Lovell, 1995]; Oreochromis niloticus [Tuan et al, 2003]; Cyprinus carpio [Pepeljnjak et al, 2003;Petrinec et al, 2004]; and Oncorhynchus mykiss [Meredith, Riley, Bacon, Williams, & Carlson, 1998]) are freshwater species, and levels of sensitivity to FUM are usually higher than 10,000 μg/kg feed.…”

Use of plant-based ingredients in aquafeeds, especially for carnivorous species, is likely to increase in view of concerns regaridng the sustainability, price, and availability of fishmeal. As mycotoxins are a common problem associated with the use of plant ingredients, this study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of two levels of fumonisins (168 μg/ kg feed and 333 μg/kg) and compared with 0μg/kg (the Control diet) for total growth, whole-body nutrient retention, liver enzyme activity, and several plasma humoral parameters in juvenile gilthead seabream, Sparus aurata. Results suggest that diets contaminated with fumonisins can be detrimental to the growth performance of seabream. Fumonisin levels as low as 168 μg/kg feed had a significant impact on final body weight, feed conversion ratio, and protein efficiency ratio. Fumonisins also reduced fat and energy retention and disrupted the respiratory burst in circulating leukocytes. Fumonisin levels at 333 μg/kg feed increased these detrimental effects, clearly demonstrating a doseresponse relationship. These results highlight the possible need to re-evaluate the European Commission guidance value for fumonisins (FB 1 + FB 2) in complementary and complete feedstuffs for fish of 10,000 μg/kg, which might be too high for certain species, such as seabream.

“…Although the toxic dose for FB 1 in fish has a broad range, it is comparable with that for pigs and horses (Voss et al ). FB 1 causes mortality in fish either by direct tissue damage (Li et al ) or by immunosuppression that results in higher sensitivity to infection (Lumlertdacha and Lovell ; Pepeljnjak et al ). Chronic effects of FB 1 include a decrease in body weight gain and changes to hematological blood parameters.…”

“…Channel catfish fed a diet with 80 mg/kg FB 1 displayed significantly lower disease resistance, expressed as higher mortality after infection with E . ictaluri , than similarly challenged catfish from a control group or those fed a diet with FB 1 20 mg/kg (Lumlertdacha and Lovell ). Pepeljnjak et al () observed a reduction in body weight gain in common carp fed 0.5 and 5.0 mg/kg FB 1 for 42 d, and a higher incidence of the bacterial infection erythrodermatitis cyprini in the group receiving 5.0 mg/kg FB 1 .…”

As the use of ingredients of plant origin has increased in aquaculture, the potential for mycotoxin poisoning in fish has increased accordingly. Feeding fish with mycotoxin‐contaminated feed can lead to a breakdown in health, manifested as tissue damage or through immunosuppression. Both effects can lead to an increase in mortality. To date, however, there have been few reports of mycotoxins in feed at toxic concentrations. The aim of this study was to describe the effects of those toxic mycotoxins most commonly found as contaminants in fish feed. In terms of fish health, the most harmful mycotoxins are aflatoxin B1 and Fusarium mycotoxins. The most sensitive fish species was rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss. Future research in the field of mycotoxicosis in fish should be focused on the effects of combinations of mycotoxins.
