Conditioning and packaging of ornamental fish for transportation is important to minimize mortality during transport. Conditioning involves holding fish for several days prior to transport, providing treatments, removing dead fish, grading by size, and starving fish. Proper packaging uses oxygenated bags filled with treated water, and zeolite to remove ammonia. Fish are packaged individually or by size and the bags are placed in insulated boxes for transport. Attention to conditioning, water quality, stocking density and packaging helps ensure fish arrive alive at their destination.
The document discusses closed aquaculture systems known as recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS). RAS recirculate water through filtration processes to maintain water quality while minimizing exchange with natural waterways. They intensively culture aquatic species indoors in tanks. RAS require precise control of various water quality parameters and filtration of solid wastes to remove toxins like ammonia. While more expensive initially than other aquaculture, RAS allow intensive year-round production with minimal land and water use.
Transport of hatchlings, fry, and fingerlings is common in aquaculture. Proper techniques involve understanding fish physiology and mortality causes during transport. Seed can be collected from wild or hatcheries. Major carps are collected from flooded rivers during monsoon season. Seed from estuaries and coastal waters include milkfish, mullets, pearlspot, and seabass. Bundhs are seasonal flooded areas that stimulate breeding. Induced spawning techniques breed species that don't spawn in captivity using hormones. Transport uses open or closed oxygenated systems. Factors causing mortality are oxygen depletion, waste accumulation, temperature fluctuations, and stress. Anaesthetics and antibiotics are used to reduce stress and prevent disease.
The document discusses the global ornamental fish trade and breeding of popular species. It provides details on the production of egg-laying fish like goldfish and angel fish which require different care depending on parental behaviors. Methods for breeding live-bearing fish such as guppies, platies, swordtails and mollies are also outlined, noting internal fertilization and live birth of young.
Factors considered for designing or selection fishing gear, Joselin J
The document discusses factors to consider when designing or selecting fishing gear. It states that the choice of fishing gear depends primarily on the biological, behavioral, and distribution characteristics of the target species. The gear must be selected based on attributes suitable for the specific fishing conditions and resources. Some key factors discussed are the biology, behavior, distribution, fishing depth, currents, visibility, sea bottom conditions, and other practical considerations. No single gear is suitable for all conditions, and trade-offs may be necessary.
Cage culture involves confining fish or shellfish within mesh enclosures in existing water bodies like ponds, rivers, and oceans. Some key advantages are the flexibility to use different water resources with minimal initial investment. However, there are also disadvantages like the need for complete diets, high risk of disease transmission due to crowding, potential for localized water quality issues, and limitations to production yields. Cage aquaculture has rapidly expanded in recent decades and continues to adapt to growing global demand through clustering cages and developing more intensive cage farming systems.
Ornamental fish culture provides opportunities for entrepreneurship and income generation. It requires a minimum of 500 sq ft of land and access to fresh water and electricity. Selection of quality broodstock is important, as different species prefer different water parameters for breeding. Beginners should start with livebearers like guppies and later move to egg-layers, focusing on one species at a time. CIFA has developed technologies for breeding 16 indigenous ornamental fish species and commercializing an endangered species. It conducts national training programs and facilitates entrepreneurs with business plans and information on government subsidies.
Pen culture involves holding culturable aquatic organisms in enclosed spaces surrounded by nets or fences while maintaining water flow. It originated in Asia in the early 1920s and was later introduced to freshwater lakes and reservoirs. Pens are usually built in shallow waters and consist of barriers made from various materials like concrete, wire mesh, or nylon nets. Common species cultured in pens include various carp, milkfish, tilapia, and prawns. While pen culture provides benefits like increased production and growth, it also faces challenges like damage from predators, fouling, and poor harvest recovery rates. Overall, pen culture is best suited for extensive or semi-intensive aquaculture.

This document discusses different types of aquaculture systems including semi-intensive, intensive, and super intensive systems. It also discusses different cage culture systems used in aquaculture like fixed cages, floating cages, submersible cages, and submerged cages. Semi-intensive systems involve stocking fish at moderate densities and relying on natural foods supplemented with feed. Intensive systems rely on artificial feeds and management to maximize yields. Super intensive systems involve very high stocking densities and use of water treatment technologies like recirculating aquaculture systems.
Cage culture involves raising fish in mesh boxes placed in bodies of water. It originated in Cambodia about 200 years ago when cages were used to transport live fish to market. Cages are constructed with frames made of wood, plastic or steel, with floats to keep them buoyant and weights to anchor them. They come in various shapes and sizes, usually square or rectangular, and are 20-60 cubic meters. Cages are either fixed in flowing water, floating in lakes/rivers/offshore, or submerged and movable in areas prone to cyclones. Fish are fed through natural water movement and supplemental feeding of rice bran, fish meal and soybean cake. Fish production ranges from 3,000-25,000 kg
A fish hatchery breeds and rears fish and shellfish through early life stages. Hatcheries produce larvae and juveniles to support aquaculture. They benefit the industry by allowing for out of season production, genetic improvement through selective breeding, and reducing reliance on wild-caught juveniles. A hatchery consists of tanks for rearing larvae and holding broodstock. Key components include water storage tanks, larval rearing tanks, postlarval holding tanks, and equipment for water filtration, aeration, heating and monitoring water quality. Hatcheries are designed based on the target species' biology and local conditions like water availability.
This document presents different culture methods for farming mussels. There are three main types of culture methods: bottom culture, intertidal and shallow water culture, and deep water culture. Intertidal and shallow water culture methods include rack culture, tray culture, wig-wam culture, and rope-web culture. Rack culture involves hanging mussel collectors on bamboo poles. Tray culture uses bamboo or metal trays suspended on poles. Deep water culture methods are raft culture, using rafts to hold suspended rope collectors, and long-line culture, which uses underwater lines anchored at the bottom.
Generalized and specific definition of pond and the types relating their size, use, construction method were illustrated. Besides the culture system of fish and aquatic organisms and their types were also described.

This document discusses different farming methods for aquaculture, including cage culture, pen culture, and sewage-fed culture. Cage culture involves rearing fish in an enclosed water volume using net cages suspended from floating frames. Pen culture uses barriers like nets or fences to partition off areas of water bodies for fish culture. Sewage-fed culture utilizes treated sewage as fertilizer to promote plankton growth and increase fish production. Primary and secondary treatment methods are used to process sewage before use in aquaculture.
This document discusses the history and evolution of fish hatcheries from traditional to modern designs. It explains that traditional hatcheries used earthen pits or pots but these lacked temperature and pH control. More advanced designs in the 1970s-1980s used double cloth hatching systems or floating hapas to improve conditions. Modern hatcheries now have precise environmental control and include features like vertical jars, plastic buckets, or entire Chinese-style hatchery systems. The role of hatcheries is crucial to reliably produce high quality fish seeds for farming.
This document discusses the culture methods for the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis, an important live feed for larval marine animals. It describes how to maintain stock cultures in 1-2L flasks using Isochrysis galbana algae at 24-25C under a 12:12 light cycle. Main culture methods discussed are using various tank sizes from 50L to 1800L, sterilizing tanks with bleach, and maintaining temperature at 24-26C with lighting. Feeding protocols are provided using yeast, fish oil, and algae to culture rotifers from low to high densities. Rotifers are harvested daily and fed to larval fish starting at 3 days post hatch at 3
This document discusses sewage-fed fish culture, which involves using treated sewage water to culture fish. It provides background on the history and present status of sewage-fed fish culture. The key processes involved are primary and secondary sewage treatment through sedimentation, dilution, and storage before releasing into fish ponds. Farmers culture various fish species using techniques like pond preparation, primary fertilization through sewage, stocking, feeding, and harvesting fish for market. While sewage-fed culture benefits waste recycling and low input costs, it can also pose health risks if not properly managed.
Traditional aquaculture practices have been used in India for centuries, as documented in ancient texts. These include brackish water shrimp and fish farming using tidal flows. In western India, Bhery culture involves constructing ponds surrounded by earthen dykes, with sluice gates to control tidal water entry and drainage. Sea water and naturally occurring plankton and organic matter support fish growth. In southern India, Pokkali fields use similar tidal flooding of rice paddies for shrimp culture after the rice is harvested. These traditional low-input methods continue today in some areas, though productivity is low.

Fertilized fish eggs are known as Fish seeds. In simple words, they are the baby fishes used for seeding new Ponds in fisheries. Fish seed transportation is a process by which transfer of fish seed from the hatchery or place of collection to the rearing ponds.
Insulated Fish Tubs & Ice Box Storage, Transport & ProcessingAllwin Roto Plast
Keep your fish fresh and safe with insulated tubs and ice boxes. Read the blog to learn how to choose, store, transport, and process fish in your ice box effectively.
Fingerlings must be handled carefully from hatchery to stocking to minimize stress and disease. Proper procedures include ordering fish in advance, quarantining and treating them with saltwater upon arrival at the hatchery. When transporting, the water quality of transport containers and receiving ponds/tanks should be similar to reduce stress. Fingerlings should be acclimated gradually to receiving waters. Upon stocking, fish should be carefully counted and released when environmental conditions are suitable to avoid shock. Adhering to best practices helps ensure healthy fingerlings that survive to market size.
Fingerlings must be handled carefully from hatchery to stocking to minimize stress and disease. Proper procedures include ordering fish in advance, quarantining and treating them with saltwater upon arrival at the hatchery. When transporting, the water quality of transport containers and receiving ponds/tanks should be similar to reduce stress. Fingerlings should be acclimated gradually to receiving waters. Upon stocking, fish should be anesthetized, counted and monitored to ensure health and survival. Communication between hatcheries and farmers is important for rearing quality fingerlings.
Transport of hatchlings, fry and fingerlings of culturable species is a common necessity in aquaculture. Generally the fry trading season starts in April and continues until the end of September in Bangladesh. Nevertheless, mortality is the major problem of our traditional transportation system of fish fry. In Bangladesh, fish seed production hatcheries are typically situated far away from fish rearing ponds. I went to jessore to purchase 2kg fish seed. I bought 2kg fish seed from kappothakko nod hatchery in Jessore. The distance of Jessore to Gazipur is approximately 242 km away.The price of fish seed is 2000 to 3000Tk in case of Indian major carp.I have bought 2kg fish seed from Jessore to Gazipur by pick up. Approximately 2kg fish seed contain 7to 8 lac fry.The traditional fish seed transportation methods result in heavy mortality due to accumulation of toxic wastes such as ammonia, decrease in pH due to increase of carbon dioxide (pCO2), depletion of oxygen in the water, thermal tolerance hyperactivity, stress and tiredness of the fry and infection contracted during transportation.

Fish and Marine Foods : Quality of fishUmesh Maskare
Fish quality is influenced by species, season, catching method, and fishing grounds. Fresh fish has a shiny surface and flesh that is soft and flabby. As fish spoils, its structure loses brightness and slime thickens. To prevent spoilage, fish must be cleaned, gutted, chilled or frozen promptly. It should be stored at temperatures below 40°F and packaged to prevent freezer burn. Proper handling and storage help preserve fish quality and extend shelf life.

Microsoft power point culture tank design - culture tank designJoe David Lacy
This document discusses culture tank design for recirculating aquaculture systems. It begins by explaining that circular tanks are well-suited for fish culture as they provide a uniform environment and allow for a range of rotational velocities. Larger circular tanks are being used more as they provide significant capital and labor cost savings compared to smaller tanks. However, larger tanks also present challenges like ensuring uniform flow distribution and solids removal. The document emphasizes starting with smaller tank systems and building experience before implementing larger tanks.
This document provides information on fish handling and processing. It discusses keeping quality of fish and causes of spoilage. It then covers proper handling of fresh catch and market fish, including gutting, cleaning, cooling and preparation of fillets. Finally, it discusses various processing methods like canning, smoking, salting and drying to preserve fish and enhance flavor. The key steps for each method are outlined.
The document summarizes the key steps in processing fish and seafood:
1. Fish are kept on ice before being processed, which may include removing ice, washing, grading by size, and removing heads.
2. Filleting is typically done by machine to cut fillets from the backbone and remove bones, and some fillets may be skinned.
3. Trimming removes remaining pin bones, and inspection removes any defects from the fillets. Portions are cut according to requirements.
Fresh products are packaged on ice and frozen individually or in blocks for cold storage. Canning, pickling, freezing, drying, and smoking are also described as preservation methods.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Conditioning and packaging of ornamental fish for transportation.pdf
1. Conditioning and packaging of
ornamental fish for
transportation
•
DR. ROHITASH YADAV
DEPARTMENT OF AQAUCULTURE
2. What is conditioning of fish?
❖ Conditioning of fish refers to holding a fish in aquarium/
cemented tank/ FRP tank for several days prior to
transportation from a collection site/ production facility to a
destined location.
❖ Conditioning includes provision of prophylactic treatments
and starvation of fish (not fed).
❖ It is during the conditioning processes that fish are graded
according to the size and dead/ damaged fishes are removed.
❖ Conditioning help fish to acclimatized new environment.
3. Purpose of conditioning a fish
• The main purpose of conditioning is to improve the survival of fish during
transport.
• Prior to packing, prophylactic treatment is given to fish to ensure fish are
free from any disease (good health condition) and starvation of fish is done
to empty their stomachs and intestines in order to prevent regulations of
partially digested food materials during transport.
• Other advantages of starving the fish include a decreased amount of
excreta from fish and reduced metabolic rate, hence minimizing pollution
of the water during the journey.
• Starvation is also known to reduce stress response to handling, and this
will reduce the mortality of fish during packaging.
4. Importance of conditioning and packaging of fish
• In ornamental fish business, the ability to meet customers‟ needs for
high quality fish is always a critical factor.
• As most ornamental fish are destined for export, the fish must not only
be pleasing to look at but also robust enough to withstand the long
journey by any means of transportation.
• Transportation of live fish from area of collection site to destination or
area of farming to destination is an important activity of ornamental
fish industry.
• With the rapid development of ornamental fish industry, transport of
ornamental fish by road, water and air from local to national and
international stakeholders is on the increase.
5. Cont…
• If the transportation of fish is not planned properly, large mortality
may occur resulting in heavy loss.
• Mortality during the transportation is mainly due to poor
conditioning and packaging of fish.
• The success of ornamental fish business (particularly exporters)
largely depends on effective conditioning, good packaging
techniques and careful handling practices prior to and during
shipment.
• Therefore, it is very essential to conditioned a fish and followed by a
good packaging practices to minimal the mortality during the
transportation.
6. How conditioning of fish is done?
A. Removal of dead or damaged fish
Once all the fish are shifted to tank from pond, dead fish, if any,
should be removed and disposed off safely. Any damaged or injured
fish should also be removed and shifted to quarantine tanks.
B. Grading as per size
Ornamental fish will attract better price if these are of the same
size. Hence, fish are graded according to the size. Grading could be
done manually or by auto grading systems that uses screens of
different mesh sizes.
7. Cont..
C. Water exchange
❖ The water of the conditioning tanks is treated with common
salt @ 3 gm/liter and about 70% water is exchanged daily.
Fish are kept in conditioning tank for 1-2 days.
❖ Fish should be visually examined very carefully for any
external parasites, or any sign of distress like erratic
swimming, clamped-fins, abnormal opercular movement etc.
❖ Tank should be provided with aeration and water re-
circulation facility.
8. Cont..
D. Prophylaxis treatments
✓ To ensure fish are free of pathogens, parasites etc. few days
before shipping.
✓ The water is treat with potassium permanganate @5 ppm or
methylene blue @ 3-5 ppm to fish free from pathogens and
2-3% of salt may added to control parasites.
✓ Sometime fish fed with Vitamin C supplementary diet (8-10%)
for 1 weeks to reduce the stress and to improve resistance to
disease.
9. Starvation of fish
✓ Starving a fish before transportation has a several reasons such as it
voids digestive tract (fish may vomit or defecate in the bag), it slow the
metabolic rate of fish (Reduces oxygen requirements and Reduces
ammonia and carbon dioxide output).
✓ Generally, a small fish are starved for 12 to 24 hours before transport
while for middle sized fish, it is 48 hours and larger fish should be
starved for 3 days before shipment.
✓ Thereafter, fish should be carefully transferred into transparent
polyethylene bag (TPB) with oxygenated water for transport with
minimal disturbance.
10. Transport system
There are basically two type of live fish transport systems:
1. Open system comprising open carriers, with or without artificial aeration/
oxygenation/ water circulation.
2. Closed system in which fish are packed in sealed polyethylene bags filled with
water and over saturated with oxygen.
o The transportation of ornamental fish involved the use of oxygen,
transparent polythene bags, an insulating box, cello tapes, rubber bands,
anesthesia, Styrofoam and water.
o The fish in the oxygenated transparent polythene bags are then packed in
boxes and can be transported as cargo by road, rail or air.
11. Packaging material
❖ Fish, which is packed in LDPE bags and kept either in
corrugated or polystyrene boxes reaches its destination
either through road, rail or air or a mix of all.
❖ Sometimes these boxes are not kept properly in the
warehouse/ cargo of the railway station/airport and also not
handled properly.
❖ Hence, it is needed that packaging bags and boxes are
convenient to handle and don't get damaged during
transport.
12. Cont..
Thickness and shape of packaging bags
❖ Proper thickness of LDPE packaging bags is very important. A LDPE bag
of 250 micron thickness is more desirable.
❖ Many a times some supplier will select bags of less thickness but it is
unsafe. The shape of packaging bag is also important.
❖ In domestic market packaging bags that are sealed straight at corners
are commonly used whereas in international trade curved sealing is
preferred.
❖ The use of bags with straight corners is not good for smaller size of fish
as these will conglomerate at these corners. Therefore, the corners
could be tied with a rubber band.
13.
14. Size of packaging bags
•Size of packaging bags is also very important as the
number of fish packed depends on the size of bag.
•The number of fish that could be packed in a bag is
directly proportional to size.
• In domestic trade, the most commonly used bag
sizes are 5” x 12”, 12” x 20” and 18”x 24” whereas in
international trade the bags of 3” x 9” to 13” to 26”
are used.
15. Size and material of packaging box
✓ The poly bags are packed in a box for safe handling of fish.
✓ The boxes of large sizes are not preferred as poly bags are
arranged in a layer only and not stacked one upon other.
✓ Secondly, it is difficult to handle large size boxes.
✓ In domestic trade corrugated boxes of 3-5 ply are used whereas in
international trade boxes of polystyrene are used.
✓ The most common sizes of polystyrene boxes used by exporters
are 60 (L) cm x 42 (W) cm x 30 (H) cm and 49 (L) cm x 38 (W) cm x
38 (H)
16. Advantage of poly-styrene boxes
✓ The poly-styrene boxes provide insulation against temperature and
also reduce the risk of water leakage from box.
✓ The minimum wall thickness of boxes should be 2.5 mm but
should be thicker if temperature of the destination country is very
low.
17. Optimize of packaging density
The number of fish that are to be packed in a bag needs to be
perfectly calculated. It depends on the size of fish as well as
duration of transport. The quantity of water, quality of oxygen and
process of packaging are other important factors for
consideration.
Determining of stocking density
✓ The stocking density of fish is determined considering many factors such
as species tolerance to stress, size of fish, transit time, temperature,
health condition of fish, sedatives used.
✓ In general practice, about 200 g (25 fishes of 3” length) total biomass of
gold fish or 30 g (100 fishes of 1.25” length) of guppies could be packed
in one liter of water under standard conditions.
18.
19. Cont..
Ratio of water and oxygen
✓ It is to be ensured that there is enough reserve of dissolve oxygen in
the bag when it reaches at destination. Fish are packed in plastic bags
filled with 1/3 water and 2/3 oxygen.
✓ However, it is to be ensured that only pure oxygen is used not air.
Secondly, it shall be ensured that all the air is removed from the bag
before filling-in with oxygen.
✓ Other points to be remembered are that bags should be properly
inflated and reasonably tight but should not be overfilled as during a
flight the bags decompresses a bit and expand leading to burst or leak
in flight.
20. Cont..
Removal of ammonia
❖ Ammonia is highly toxic to fish in its un-iodised form.
❖ It accumulates in packaging bags due to excretion of fish and
bacterial action on the excreta.
❖ A level of 0.05 ppm could be harmful for the fish.
❖ It could be controlled by adding granules/rings of zeolite @15-
20 g/litre of water.
21. cont…
Slowing down of metabolic activities
success of transportation could be further enhanced by adding in tranquilizers/
sedatives in packing bags. The most commonly used sedatives are Eugenol (5
mg/l), Quinaldine (5 mg/l) and MS-222 (20 mg/l). However, it should be ensured
that dosages are proper and the use of sedatives is permitted by the importing
country.
Benefits of sedating fish are
a. Decrease the rate of oxygen consumption and reducing the rate of excretion
of carbon dioxide, ammonia and other toxic wastes
b. Controlling the excitability of the fish and thereby reducing chances of injury
c. Reduce the time required for handling them.
22. Process of packaging
• Subsequent to preparing of consignment for packaging, a standard set
of operating protocols shall be followed to reduce the transport
mortalities.
• It includes preparing the water to be used in packaging, pre-packaging
acclimatization and final packaging.
• The practice of pre-packaging acclimatization is not followed in domestic
trade but is better to be followed in case of long distance transportation.
• However, it is a compulsory component in export trade.
23. Preparing of water for packaging
✓ Water to be used for packaging shall be prepared in
advance.
✓ The required quantity of clean water is stored in clean tanks
and it is treated with common salt (3 gm/l) and methylene
blue (2 mg/l) or acriflavine (7 mg/l).
✓ The addition of common salt will aid in osmoregulation
whereas methylene blue or acriflavine acts as anti-
microbial agent.
24. Pre-packaging exercise ensures high transportation
survival
✓ Once fish are sufficiently starved they can be pre-packed into bags so as
to acclimate fish to packing conditions.
✓ It allows 'weak' or stressed fish to be identified and removed from
consignments prior to shipping.
✓ This stage is also important in terms of a final quality check before
packing and shipping.
✓ The bags are placed on racks/trolleys in an air-conditioned room at 22-
23℃ in dark for 4-6 hours in case of tropical fish and at 15-18℃ in case
of Coldwater fish.
✓ The details of species, total number of fish and their average size shall be
mentioned with the help of a marker pen on the bags.
25. Final packaging
✓ A required quantity of pre-treated water is filled up in poly bags
as specified above according to the size of bags.
✓ It shall be ensured that the temperature of water being filled in
bags is same as that of pre-packed bags after acclimatization
period.
✓ The bag filled up with water is now placed in another bag of same
dimensions.
✓ Inserting of a news paper in between the two bags provides
additional safety against water leakage and also reduces stress to
fish due to excess light.
26. ✓ Thereafter, fish are transferred to the new bag with the help of a
hand net of very soft material.
✓ The air inside the bag is expelled and replaced with oxygen.
✓ The bag is then sealed by twisting the top of the bag and folded
over, with rubber bands or metal clips used to fasten the top of
the bag.
✓ In domestic trade bags are tied with rubber bands while in
international trade tying with metal clips is popular and a fast
process.
✓ The details of species, total number of fish and average size are
again mentioned with the help of a marker pen on the bags.

30. Packaging of aggressive fish
All aggressive fish like fighter fish and most of
the cichlids, or fish with fragile finnage like veil
tail angel, pearl gouramis, bubble eye gold fish
or costly fish like arowana or discus are packed
individually to prevent them from attacking
each other or that the fins remain intact on
arrival.
31. Box packing of poly-bags
• It shall be ensured that poly-bags stocked with fish are properly
kept in boxes meant for transportation. The important points to
remember are:
➢Bags are kept straight and not stacked upon each other.
➢There is not any sharp object inside the box.
➢Once all the poly-bags are kept in the box, these are to be
covered with a news paper before closing the box.
➢In case of a very long duration transport ice packs can be
placed in the box but not inside the poly-bags.
32. Labelling of box for transportation
✓Labelling of box is very essential during the
transportation of ornamental fish.
✓Labelling must be included on each box.
Boxes must be marked as „this end up‟, „Live
Fish‟, „Handle with Care‟, Customer contact
details, etc.
