| Health management is a concept of dealing with fish health by providing general environmental and culture conditions that reduce the incidence and severity of diseases, leading to efficient and economic production of fish. The old saying “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” is very applicable to silver perch farming. Health management commences with the selection of a good site and encompasses all aspects of the production cycle by combining a well-designed farm with Good Aquaculture Practices to minimise stress and health problems, and to optimise survival, growth, food conversion, reproduction and production. | ||
