“…The use of fish as a model for laboratory tests has become increasingly popular in recent decades (DeTolla, Srinivas, Whitaker, Andrews, Hecker, Kane & Reimschuessel ; Jenkins, Bart, Bowker, Bowser, MacMillan, Nickum, Rachlin, Rose, Sorensen, Warkentine & Whitledge ). In certain countries, fish are the third‐most commonly used animal group in scientific experiments (Overturf ).…”

Use of MS-222 (tricaine methanesulfonate) and propofol (2,6-diisopropylphenol) as anaesthetics for the tetraAstyanax altiparanae(Teleostei, Characidae)

The aim of this study was to evaluate the anaesthetic effect of MS-222 and propofol and determine their optimal concentrations for safe handling of the tetra Astyanax altiparanae in the laboratory. The fish were separated by length into three classes: I (1.5-5.0 cm), II (5.1-8.0 cm) and III (greater than 8.1 cm). Pilot tests were performed to evaluate the appropriate anaesthetic concentrations for inducing the five possible anaesthetic stages: I -sedation; II -light anaesthesia; IIIdeep anaesthesia; IV -surgical anaesthesia; and V -spinal collapse. After defining the maximum and minimum concentrations required to induce stage IV anaesthesia, the animals were exposed to five intermediate concentrations (n = 10 fish/concentration) of each anaesthetic for 15 min. The animals were then transferred to clean water to evaluate the time required for recovery. In addition, blood glucose levels were measured for class II and class III fish subjected to the previously defined ideal concentrations for each of the tested anaesthetics (n = 10 fish/treatment). Both evaluated substances are suitable to anaesthetize A. altiparanae. The optimal MS-222 concentration was 90 mg L À1 , and this result was similar for all three size classes. The optimal propofol concentrations for inducing surgical anaesthesia in the size classes I, II and III were 0.22, 0.23 and 0.27 respectively.

Eurasian perch Perca fluviatilis growth and fish community structure, inside and outside a marine‐protected area in the Baltic Sea

Growth of Eurasian perch Perca fluviatilis L. and fish community structure between sites within a marine‐protected area (MPA) and unprotected sites in the Baltic Sea were examined. Von Bertalanffy, logistic and Gompertz growth models were fitted to P. fluviatilis length at age data, and the logistic model was the most parsimonious for growth between locations. A larger mean maximum size (L∞) and a smaller instantaneous growth rate (g) were found within the MPA. All three models also predicted that after age seven, fish inside the MPA would be larger. Community structure differed with more P. fluviatilis collected outside of the MPA, and more roach Rutilus rutilus (L.) and bleak Alburnus alburnus (L.) collected inside the MPA. These growth differences may be indicative of recreational fishing effects on P. fluviatilis outside of the MPA, a result of complex interspecific and intraspecific species interactions, or other undetected environmental variation between locations.

“…However, to consider ethical issues and to avoid fish mortality due to starvation, 10 pellets per fish were given to all the fish on Days 12 and 16, one hour before the water change. All experimental procedures involving animals were conducted in accordance to Animal Welfare Act and Interagency Research Animal Committee guidelines [27], and approved by Research Committee of Marina Sciences Faculty of Tarbiat Modares University.…”
