Anti-Stress Solutions for Fish

Recently, one of our customers contacted us to tell us about some problems he encountered in catfish farming. After transferring the catfish from the earthen pond to the tank, a large number of catfish died in just a few days; he had tried various methods but still had no effect, and was very disturbed by this. According to his description, we can judge that his catfish had a serious stress reaction due to the change of environment. As a farmer, in order to effectively solve this kind of problem, we have to understand what stress reaction is.

What is the stress reaction

Stress reaction refers to a compensatory, non-specific response that occurs when the body is unable to directly adapt to a certain degree of environmental stimulation. This response broadens the adaptive range of fish, enabling them to cope with environmental changes that exceed their normal physiological regulation capabilities to a certain extent. However, excessive stress or prolonged stress can have a serious impact on the physiological functions of fish and exacerbate the deterioration of their health.

What causes catfish stress

There are two main reasons for fish stress: one is the drastic changes in the natural environment, such as drastic changes in water quality, sudden temperature fluctuations, insufficient feed, water pollution, etc.; the other is social factors between animals, such as excessive breeding density, the presence of predators, etc. These are all important factors that cause fish to feel stressed. However, in the case of our catfish farmer, under the intensive catfish aquaculture environment, the shift from earthen ponds to tanks triggered problems such as high-density feeding, fluctuations in dissolved oxygen, pH imbalance, changes in salinity, and abnormal water temperatures, which led to the catfish being in a long-term sub-healthy state, inducing hemorrhage, enteritis, liver and gallbladder syndromes, and other diseases, and ultimately causing a large number of deaths in a short period of time, resulting in serious economic losses to the farmers.

The impact of stress to fish

01 Damage to physiological functions: Stress will lead to a series of complex physiological changes in fish, such as a significant increase in plasma levels of hormones such as adrenaline, noradrenaline and cortisol. The long-term presence of high levels of these hormones will burden the internal organs of fish and affect their normal physiological functions. For example, the normal operations of the cardiovascular system, respiratory system, digestive system, etc. may be interfered with.

02 Decreased immunity: Under stress, the immune system of fish may be suppressed, resulting in decreased resistance to disease. This makes fish more susceptible to pathogens that can cause various diseases. Prolonged stress may also lead to persistent disruption of the immune system, increasing the risk of disease infection and mortality in fish.

03 Impede growth: Stress phenomena consume a large amount of energy and nutrients in fish, which are used to cope with environmental changes and restore body balance. This unproductive consumption of energy directly affects the growth rate and developmental quality of fish. Fish that have been in a state of stress for a long time may have their growth rate significantly slowed down, their body size may be smaller, and their meat quality may also be affected.

04 Decreased reproductive capacity: Stress may also have adverse effects on the reproductive system of fish. Male fish may suffer from reduced sperm quality due to stress, while female fish may experience problems such as reduced egg production and reduced egg quality. These will directly reduce the reproductive capacity of fish and the quality of life of offspring.

05 Abnormal behavior: Fish under stress may have behavioral abnormalities, such as increased swimming speed, increased escape behavior, changes in feeding behavior, etc. These abnormal behaviors will not only affect the normal life and survival strategies of fish, but may also adversely affect the breeding environment and ecological balance.

Improvement of Production Performance

1. This product can significantly accelerate the growth of oocytes and spermatocytes, promote the development and maturation of follicles and sperm, thereby improving the breeding rate,pregnancy rate, and increasing economic benefits.

2. lmprove and repair the digestive tract mucosa, shorten the time of feed digestion and absorption, improve the body's nutritional status, promote the growth and development of livestock and poultry, reduce the feed-to-meat ratio, and save feeding costs.

3. Promote the rapid reproduction of beneficial bacteria in the intestinal tract, form advantageous fora, inhibit the reproduction of harmful microorganisms, reduce harmful pathogenic microorganisms with the excretion of faeces, so as to purify the breeding environment.

Improve Disease Resistance, Less Medication

1.Repair the damaged tissue and mucous membrane, comprehensively regulate the internal environment of the organism, correct the disorders of the electrolyte balance of body fluids, improve the acid-base imbalance and adjust the metabolism of the organism, accelerate the recovery of the organism, improve the resistance to disease, and reduce the cost of medication.

2.Using it together with other drugs can enhance the efficacy of the drugs, shorten the course of treatment, promote rapid recovery from the disease and reduce losses.

3.Use it continuously for 7-10 days for newly purchased livestock and poultry or when transferring groups to improve the body's immunity increase feed intake, and enhance disease resistant.

Reduce Various Kinds of Stress, Promote Growth, Red Skin And Bright Fur.

After using it, it can reduce the transfer, long-distance transport and all kinds of stress, and can improve the feed intake of livestock and poultry,accelerate the storage of all kinds of nutrients in the body, especially the deposition of myoglobin, so as to make the skin red and hair bright.
