Fish came on from Barcaldine Smolt Unit and originated from Stofnfiskur.
Mortalities started increasing in wk33 and have remained above 1% across the site since. Samples taken by Pharmaq in
September 21 confirmed the presence of AGD, HSMI and SGPV.
Site has been destocking through harvesting. Worst affected cages have been targeted first. Harvest ongoing and site will likely be fallow by the end of the year.
Weekly lice counts have remained relatively low since input, although the site has been treated to prevent lice counts increasing. Site received thermolicer treatments in wk17, wk25, wk26 and wk28 and a hydrolicer treatment in wk30. Alphamax bath treatments were done in wk29 and wk32, but the site manager has reported that the addition of cleanerfish has significantly helped reduce and keep lice numbers low.
Combined cleanerfish mortality since input (July 21) is at 2%. Cleanerfish observed during site inspection appeared healthy - no cleanerfish moribunds or mortalities were observed across the site.
The majority of the fish on site appeared in good health and were active. 3 mortalities and 8 moribunds were observed across the site, 5 moribund fish were removed for diagnostic samples.
A boat was due to arrive on site later this evening to harvest a further cage. Site is doing live haul harvests to South Shian processing plant.
Gill swabs are being taken every 2 weeks and plankton sampling is also being conducted. Very little plankton has been observed in the water column and dissolved oxygen at the site remains steady around 9mg/L.
Fish sampled for VMD appeared healthy and demonstrated a strong feed response. [Original PDF]
