A Comprehensive Study on Diagnosis Precaution and Treatment of Fungus Diseases in Aquatic Fish Species
Dr. Rajan Verma
Abstract: This study investigates the common fungus diseases in fish, their causes, and the impact of environmental stresses. The paper also discusses various diagnostic methods and suggests control measures to prevent these diseases, with focus on Black Gill diseases (Furarium) Res diseases (Aflatoxicosis), Saprolegniasis, Branchiomycosis, Ichthyophonus disease and EUS (Epizootic Ulcerative Syndrome) fungal diseases in fish. Fungal infections (fungal infections are called mycoses) are among the most common diseases seen in temperate fish. Fungal spores are found in all fish ponds and create problems in stressed fish. Poor water quality can also lead to an increase in fungal infections in an otherwise healthy fish population. Most fungal infections only attack the external tissues and only few fungal infections that will infect the internal organs of fish.
