Stress-Reducing Agents for Fish Aquaculture

In fish farming, practices such as extrusion of eggs, biometrics, transportation, and hypermobility impose a lot of stress on the fish. Additionally, the transport and processing of live fish for aquaculture and the aquarium trade leads to fish mortality or injury. In such cases, the use of anti-stress compounds and calming agents is essential to minimize stress, facilitate handling, and reduce the risk of injury to the fish. Anxiolytics work synergistically in fish farming, minimizing the intensity of stress imposed.
