What is Murrel Fish Red Disease ?

Murrel Fish Red Disease is often associated with infections caused by pathogens like bacteria, parasites, or fungi. It can lead to symptoms such as redness, ulcers, hemorrhages on the body, and lethargy in murrel fish (Channa striata). These infections are sometimes linked to environmental stressors, such as poor water quality or low temperatures, which weaken the fish's immune system and make them more susceptible to diseases

How to Murrel Fish Red Disease control ?

Controlling Murrel Fish Red Disease involves a combination of preventive measures and treatments. Here are some strategies:

1. Water Quality Management: Maintain optimal water conditions, including temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen levels. Regularly monitor and clean the water to reduce stress on the fish.

2. Quarantine: Isolate new fish before introducing them to the main pond to prevent the spread of pathogens.

3. Nutrition: Provide a balanced diet to strengthen the fish's immune system. High-protein feeds can be beneficial.

4. Medication: Use antibiotics or antifungal treatments as prescribed by a veterinarian to address bacterial or fungal infections.

5. Biosecurity: Implement measures to prevent the introduction of diseases, such as controlling access to the pond and disinfecting equipment.

6. Regular Monitoring: Keep an eye on the fish for early signs of disease and act promptly to address any issues.

Check Water Parameters ?

1.PH: Is above 7.5. for Use digital meters for accurate.

2.Ammonia Levels if they are high then you need to add Jaggery till it reduce 7.5.

Like if you have 10000 liters tank and 20000 liters tank, Add 1000 ml jaggery Liquid in each tank.

so it will become 2000 ml. then wait for 6 hrs + see results. If you think you can add some more reduce level add some liquid jaggery to tanks. becareful dont add toomuch at a time the fish face difficult in water to breath.

In this case ammonia will act on jaggery this waste material and urine of fish present in tank will balance the level.

In Mean time monitor you PH level should Decrease and try to maintain the levels. If you level change add Imediately. Helps in reducing in fish Motality. 

I have lost fishes when i have not balaced things in huge daily base 10 or 20 or 30 more. so be careful to protect them.

Daily 1 or 5 means your sign of water paramets issue. i am too trying to maintain things.
