Dear Will,
These fingerlings are coming from earthen ponds, that gets water from an underground
spring connected to a farm reservior
The area of operation is at high altitude and average temperatures are around 26°C, water
quality is acceptable but with high levels of suspended solids and green water. These
fish receive a supplementary diet made of formulated floating feed, and there has been no
cases of mortality but that is the first case sofar reported. The stocking density is low
and fingerlings size is about 5g, originating from the same farm.
Thank you

Chers membres,
Pouvait-on connu ces lésions en alevins de tilapia
Le cas échéant, ce qui pourrait être la cause possible (fongique ou bactérienne?)

Cher Will,
Ces alevins sont en provenance des étangs de terre, qui obtient de l'eau d'une
source souterraine reliée à un reservior agricole
La zone d'opération est à haute altitude et les températures moyennes sont autour de
26 ° C, qualité de l'eau est acceptable, mais avec des niveaux élevés de solides en
suspension et l'eau verte. Ces poissons reçoivent une alimentation complémentaire en
aliments flottants formulé, et il n'y a eu aucun cas de mortalité, mais qui est le
premier cas rapporté so far. La densité de peuplement est faible et alevins taille est
environ 5 g, provenant de la même exploitation.
Merci

Dear Ronald
Thank you – Ive compressed down the size of your photos – also made them lighter and
hopefully clearer - please can you resend again to the forum but this time include
some background information about the fingerlings themselves ie
From earthpond? Tank? Raceway? Hapa? Area/volume of pond? Tank etc
Water source Spring? River? Borehole? Other?
Water temp?
Water quality ? good ? cloudy ? high suspended solids?
Fed regularly? Which feed?
Mortalities? Nos per day ?
Size in g of fingerlings
Nos in pond ?Stocking density in pond? Tank? Etc
Other species in holding unit ? Polyculture or just tilapia
Origin of the tilapia fingerlings ? stocked from ?
If you can give these further details it will help people on the forum to give you a
better informed reply
Best wishes Will
