The advantages and disadvantages of different tagging methods are considered for factors like retention rate, effects on fish, and costs.
Broodstock And Hatchery Management Of Penaeus Monodonsush_p
Shrimp aquaculture is an important and valuable production sector that has been growing rapidly over the past two decades. Success is largely based on the quality of post larvae, particularly their health condition, thus making hatchery production of quality post larvae crucial to the sector’s sustainability. Vietnam is the leading producer of black tiger shrimp in the world with a production of 300,000 tons in 2011, followed by India and Indonesia with a production of 187,900 tons and 126,200 tons respectively.
Major contribution of the tiger shrimp to global shrimp production and the economic losses resulting from disease outbreaks, it is essential that the shrimp-farming sector invest in good management practices for the production of healthy and quality seed. The Indian shrimp hatchery industry has established a detailed guidance and protocols for improving the productivity, health management, biosecurity and sustainability of the sector. Following a brief review of shrimp hatchery development in India, the major requirements for hatchery production are discussed under the headings: infrastructure, facility maintenance, inlet water quality and treatment, wastewater treatment, biosecurity, standard operating procedures (SOPS), the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) approach, chemical use during the hatchery production process and health assessment. Pre-spawning procedures include the use of wild, domesticated and specific pathogen free/ specific pathogen resistant (SPF/SPR) broodstock, broodstock selection and holding techniques, transport, utilization, health screening, maturation, nutrition and spawning, egg hatching; nauplius selection, egg/ nauplius disinfection and washing and holding, disease testing and transportation of nauplii. Post-spawning procedures include: larval-rearing unit preparation, larval rearing/health management, larval nutrition and feed management, important larval diseases, quality testing/selection of PL for stocking, PL harvest and transportation, nursery rearing and record keeping.

Rivers were the major source of freshwater fish seed in India during 1950’s and 1960’s.
Over the years, the riverine contribution has declined and at present forms only a supplementary source, constituting less than 5% of the country’s total fish seed production.
The Ganga, the Brahmaputra and the Indus river systems in the North and the Peninsular East coast and the West coast river systems in the South are the important natural sources of fish seed.

A fish aggregating device is a man-made object used to attract ocean going pelagic fish such as marlin, tuna and mahi-mahi. They usually consist of buoys or floats tethered to the ocean floor with concrete blocks. FADs attract fish for numerous reasons that vary by species.
Fisheries aggregating devices (FADs) are human-made structures anchored offshore that attract fish, making them easier to catch so you can have a great fishing experience.
Almost all natural bodies of water bear fish life, the exceptions being very hot thermal ponds and extremely salt-alkaline lakes such as the Dead Sea and Great Salt Lake. The fishes belong to the most numerous and diversified group among vertebrates. They dominate the water bodies of the world through a variety of morphological, physiological and behavioral adaptations. They have been in existence for more than 450 million years. A total of 24618 species of fishes belonging to 482 families and 4258 genera have so far been described. About 58% of the fish species are marine while 41% are freshwater inhabitants and 1% migrants. In our Indian region alone, there are 2,500 species of which 930 are inhabitants of freshwater and the rest live in the seas. In other words, India harbours 11.5% of the fish fauna so far known in the world. There are over 800 living species of sharks and rays, 30 species of chimaeras and ratfishes, 6 species of lung fishes, 1 species of coelacanths, 36 species of long ray finned bichirs, sturgeons and paddlefishes. The Neopterygii are the rest of the known species of modem fishes. All these fishes inhabit various niches in the aquatic environment. The diversified habitats of fishes include open oceans, deep oceanic trenches, nearshore waters, saline coastal embayments, brackishwaters, estuaries, intermittent streams, tiny desert springs, vernal pools, cold mountain streams, lakes, ponds, etc.

Overview :
Many fisheries are non-selective fishing gear catching animals that they did not intend to. This non-taget extra catch is known as ‘bycatch’.
Of these bycatch species, some have a commercial value and are brought back to land by fishers to be sold. However, a large proportion is unwanted and so is discarded-thrown back over the side of the boat.

Mechanical and Structural Properties of Eastern Nigeria Tortoise Shellijtsrd
Macro structural and mechanical properties of tortoise shells of Nigeria indigenous specie were studied to reveal its evolution as a natural load bearing protective amour. The shell is revealed in this study to be a natural sandwich composite made of keratin, dorsal cortex, porous bone and ventral cortex. Indications of delamination which help the tortoise to absorb shocks were seen in the keratin. The dorsal and ventral cortexes were seen to be load bearing members with distribution of fibers in a manner that sustain dead load. The porosity seen in the middle porous layer ensures that the carapace is not too heavy for the tortoise to carry thus guarantees ease of locomotion, strength and damping. The average porosity of the studied shells is determined to be 31.0425 which as expected is smaller than the value 48.9 reported for porosity of shell of the turtle Terrapene Carolina in literature. The suture of the shell is revealed to house a zigzag interlocking design that allow slight deformation of the shell under light loads required for respiration, locomotion and metabolism but stiffen under excessive deformation. Stiffness of two specimens was determined to be and for the shells with masses 0.2362 kg and 0.2764Kg respectively. These stiffness values were as expected higher the typical values for those of turtles. The stiffness to mass ratio k m for the two shells were respectively calculated to be and . The conditions established for equivalent synthetic shells to have less stiffness to mass ratio were and respectively. These conditions were shown not to be because of problems of stress concentration and weakness at the joints and delamination of the biological shells.

Eco-Friendly Fishing Lures: One of the best ways to practice sustainable fishing is to use biodegradable fishing lures. Since rubber doesn’t break down, in the water or in a fish’s stomach, a good substitute is biodegradable plastic that will dissolve over time. An added perk to these eco-friendly options is that the soft lures can be made in all colors and designs to attract your target fish just as effectively as traditional lures.
Eco Fishing Weights: Not only is lead toxic to humans, but it’s dangerous for fish as well, causing both physical and behavioral changes. That’s why many manufacturers today produce sinkers made from safer materials that will cause less damage if ingested or left in the water. Some common substitutes used in non-toxic weights are brass, steel, tungsten or tin. You’ll also want to make sure they’re chip resistant to prevent paint loss in the water. And remember that while these variations may be a little more expensive than lead lures, the benefits outweigh the costs.
Eco Fishing Line: Like lures, anglers today can opt for biodegradable monofilament line fishing line that breaks down faster yet still has the same performance characteristics as regular line. Even if you don’t have biodegradable line, you can take steps to properly dispose of your traditional line to reduce your impact on the environment. For example, many bait shops, fishing access points, piers and other spots have designated collection bins for discarded monofilament and fluorocarbon fishing line.
Other Eco Fishing Tackle and Equipment: Anglers have several other eco-friendly options nowadays. For example, when you’re choosing hooks, opt for circle hooks instead of J-hooks to minimize internal damage if you’re practicing catch and release. Look for rigs made of materials like glass beads. Pick knotless nets. Instead of using fresh bait collected from fish habitats, choose artificial. And when you’re picking out other gear like waders, bags or boxes, look for those made from recycled materials.
ECO-FRIENDLY ANGLING
Beyond fishing gear, there are other ways to practice eco-friendly fishing. If you catch and release, in addition to choosing barbless circle hooks, be sure to use the right eco-friendly fishing lures for the species to avoid exhausting the fish, keep your catch wet and limit the time the fish stays out of the water to increase the chance of survival.
It’s also important to pay attention to the area around you. Take your trash with you to prevent fish and other wildlife from eating or getting caught in your rubbish. If you’re boating, consider rowing or paddling a canoe rather than a motorized choice. If you do go in a power boat, be careful when you’re navigating over fragile habitats and be careful to prevent fuel spills.
Investigation of otolith in Priacanthus tayenusin persian gulf and Oman SeaInnspub Net
This study aimed to investigation of otolith in Priacanthus tayenusin Persian Gulf and Oman Sea. Sampling lasted from September 2011 to December 2012. During this period 5 samples of Priacanthus tayenus were cut
and studied. Trawling time was 2-2½ hours and trawling depth was considered as 10-100 m daily. Catching and
sampling operations was done within 24 hours. Sampling and catching was done in Khuzestan and Bushehr waters in fall and winter of 2011and since the third week of September 2012 sampling was done in Hormozgan
and Sistan and Baloochestan waters. All thefish were identified and their otolith was extracted to verify them.
Investigation of otolith morphometric characteristics (length, breadth, weight, perimeter and area) were
conducted.
2. Marking- is a technique to show something (fish) to be different or special, .
Tagging- in which some device is attached , is probably the most common way of
marking fish for future identification. All fish tags have one thing in common, regardless
of the shape or kind of tag; each is stamped or printed with a serial number and the
name of the laboratory or agency that is conducting the tagging study.
Marking & tagging
3. Significance
• for better understanding of movement & migration pattern.
• to discriminate between the mixed stocks.
• to estimate natural mortality, fish growth, length-weight relationship, population size
• to estimate relative abundance.
4. Tag selection
Great consideration should be given to the choice of tag-type when developing a
tagging programme.
• objectives of the tagging study or programme
• durability, longevity and stability of the tag
• stress associated with the capture, handling and tagging process
• size and number of individuals to be tagged
• ease of tag application
• cost of purchasing the tags and conducting the tagging experiment
5. Biological- Morphological Marks; Genetic Marks

Marking and Tagging Methods
6. Biological method
Morpholological marks
Natural marks include meristic counts, proportional sizes of body parts, shape and
coloration and circulus patterns of scales. The use of meristic and morphometric
marks is limited because these traits are subject to environmental and genetic
influences, which frequently overlap among populations.
Genetic marks
The use of genetic markers for identification purposes has been described by
Hansen et al. (1995). To withdraw genetic marks, only a sample of body tissue is
needed for analysis.
7. Chemical marks
Immersion-In this technique fish simply
immersed in chemical.
Injection-It is a self explainating techniqe.
•Possible problems are concentration of
substance, and location of injection.
Feeding-Works well in laboratory and hatchery settings where fish can be monitored
and feed the dyes. Without monitoring the fish problems can occur where some
individuals do not feed as much as others and the marker is not as clearly recognized.
9. Strap Tags
This tag is a flat metal strip .The tag was adapted from a cattle ear tag and was first
used on salmon in Alaska. The tag may be attached to the gill cover, to the lower
jaw , or to the top of the tail fin and has been used on halibut, cod, haddock, tuna,
and in fresh-water fishes.
10. Dart/Anchor/Streamer Tags
Dart tags - made of nylon shaft with a barbed end and a vinyl tube that fist over
the upper end of the shaft. The barbed end of the shaft holds the tag in the fish
and the tube contains the tag information
Anchor tag (Floy tags)- applicable for long-term studies on migration on adult
migratory species. This tag is a modified dart tag in which a nylon T-bar replaces the
harpoon like head of the dart tag.
11. A loop of vinyl tubing that passes through the fish. Information is printed directly on
the tubing. Two variation of the tag are lock-on and cinch-up tags, which use special
locking devices instead of a knot. The tag is retained well and inexpensive, but
application is time-consuming
Spaghetti tag
12. Petersen Tag
Petersen Disc tag below the dorsal fin
of a warmouth.
Named for the Danish biologist who invented
it in 1894 . The tag consists of two Celluloid
or plastic discs, about one-half inch in
diameter, attached with a pin or wire to some
part of the fish . The tag can be attached to
the gill covers through the back muscles , or
through the fleshy part of the tail.
13. This tag is extremely simple, consisting of a disc or flat plate attached by a thread or
wire that pierces the tissues. It was first used in l873 by Charles G. Atkins who tagged
Atlantic salmon .There have been many variations in this tag, particularly in the size
and shape of the plate and the materials used. The most recent variation is the use of
vinyl plastic for the plate and vinyl plastic tubing for the wire .
Atkins tag
14. Mutilation
Clipping or punching fins or other body parts which can later be used to identify
individuals. The pectoral or pelvic fin was clipped at the base, while the upper
or lower caudal fin lobe was removed .Usually two fins are clipped.
15. Physical Methods (External)
Advantages
• Easy and fast to apply, requiring only simple technology for the application.
• Applicable to large numbers of fish and to a great range of species.
• Easily detected due to the exterior attachment.
• Provide space for printing information.
• Because of low cost, can provide a large number of returns, and sufficient data .
•Long tag-retention time (depending on the type of tag).
16. Disadvantages
• Does not provide information until recapture.
• Return rates may be variable.
• May affect growth, health and survival, behaviour and swimming/hiding.
• May become entangled in aquatic vegetation or in fishing gear.
• Can be difficult to apply or may not be applicable to very small fish.
17. Subcutaneous tags (detected externally )
Inexpensive plastic discs imprinted with serial numbers , are planted in between
the outer layer of skin and muscles by a small incision.
Visible Implant
Elastomer
18. Coded Wire Tag
A small piece of wire injected into a fish
using small applicators or by hand.
These tags can be placed in the snout,
necks, caudal fins, and any other
muscular area. The tags can be
detected with a sensitive metal detector
or an x-ray.
19. Body Cavity Tags
• A device is inserted completely into the body
cavity through a small incision. All information
is printed on the tag, which is typically made of
plastic.
20. Small glass-encapsulated electromagnetic coil and microchip that is inserted into the
body cavity by using a veterinary syringe. The tags are energised at frequencies of
approximately 400 kHz generating a return signal of between 40 to 50 kHz. Tags can
be decoded with a portable hand-held reader.
Passive Integrated Transponding (PIT) tags
21. DST GPS TAG
Data Storage tag (DST) Global Positioning System (GPS) can be attached externally
or implanted into fish. DST GPS can receive information about geographic position
from satellites.
22. Physical Methods(Internal)
Advantages
Do not protrude from the body.
Do not require removal of parts of the fish.
Non-toxic and may put less stress on the fish compared to other
tagging methods.
Disadvantages
Can be expensive.
Trained personnel are necessary.
Recovery is difficult.
