In this study, certain water quality parameters (water temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, total inorganic nitrogen (TIN), phosphate (PO4), nitrite (NO2), nitrate (NO3), ammonium (NH4), and (BOD5) in the effluents and the efficiency of the treatment systems for eliminating wastes at a commercial trout farm with a capacity of 10 tons/year in Izmir (Kemalpasa) were examined. The DO, temperature, pH, TIN, PO4, NO2, NO3, and BOD5 measured, were different in the outlet waters when compared with the inlet waters (p<0.05). The settling basin did not reduce the TIN and PO4, on the contrary, it caused an increase in the nitrogen (N) up to 19.9% and phosphorus (P) up to 20.30%, while the wetlands reduced the N, P, and BOD5 up to 53.2%, 58.2%, and 36.5%, respectively (p<0.05). According to the chemical and biological methods, the averages of the TIN and P loads for one tone of cultured trout without treatment were estimated to be were 80 kg and 7 kg, respectively. The annual TIN load of this trout farm was estimated to be 21.3 kg while the TP load was 2.9 kg for one tone of cultured trout when the treatment efficiency was taken into account. The microbiological analyses conducted with the effluent waters showed that the rate of aerobic mesophilic bacteria was found to be high in the summer but low in the winter. It was also detected that the coliform group bacteria were present in the environment in the summer while their occurence was with-in standards in the winter. Interactions of the 9 water quality parameters were identified through the linear regression analysis in order to reduce the environmental effects of the facility DO=28.296 - (0.248 x BOD5)- (2.948 x pH) + (0.189 x temperature) + (0.851 x inlet water) + (0.163 x winter) (R-2=0.912). According to this model, the DO values were increased by the temperature, inlet water and the winter season while reduced by the BOD5 and pH. The dissolved oxygen content in the wetland outlet water was measured as being high because of the nutrient and temperature rises which boosted photosyntesis. It was concluded that using mechanical settling methods were inadequate to minimise the nutrients released into the receiving water body so wetlands should be constructed in such a way as to receive the flow of effluents from the trout farms. As a result the quality of water used by the facility has no adverse impact on the aquaculture and environmental ecosystem.

İncele - MakaleAçık Erişim2016Scopus SJRQ3Spawning and Larval Rearing in Hybrid Striped Bass (Morone chrysops ♀ X Morone saxatilis ♂) in Turkey
Guner, Yusuf; Kizak, Volkan; Altunok, Muhammet; Celik, Ihsan
This study is the first spawning and larval rearing of the F-1 hybrid striped bass (Morone chrysops female X M. saxatilis male) grown in culture conditions in Turkey. The F-1 Hybrid striped bass was fed with commercial pellet feed in floating net cages. They reached the sexual maturity at two years old. Female brood fish were given 30 mu g/kg of LHRH-a (Lutenizing hormone releasing hormone analogue) and male fish given 10 mu g/kg; of CHP(Dried carp pituitary), 4 mg/kg was used for the female and half that amount for the male for induced breeding. The fish injected LHRHa were successfully induced to both strip spawning and tank spawning by a single hormone injection. However, fish injected CPH and saline, untreated control did not spawn. Latency period was found to be 20.41 +/- 0.91 hour. In term of fertilization rate, larval deformity rate no significant difference was found between tank spawning and strip spawning (p>0.05). Fertilization rates ranged from 56.3% to 85.4% and hatch rates were between 0.99% and 46.88%, whereas the level of larval deformities ranged between 81.25% and 100%. Hatched larvae were placed into 400-liter rectangular tanks with water discharge of 4 liter/minute at a stocking density of 30 larvae/liter. After larvae hatching, they were given artemia nauplii for 5-19 days. Trout granule feed (300-500 micron) also started to be given in addition to artemia nauplii afterwards. Granule feed was started eating completely 24 th days. The larvae obtained from a single hatch in the production season reached 2.87 cm length in 32 days with 2.7% survival rate. Of this study was terminated due to white spot disease (Ichtyophthirius multifilis) arising from sudden change in water temperature. The F-2 progenies were not deemed to be available for aquaculture due to poor fertilization, poor hatching, low survival rate and high deformity rate. For the progenies of the hybrid striped bass that grow in natural water, it was suggested that their ecology in waters in Turkey be first studied and brought into aquaculture afterwards.

Kizak, V.; Ozden, O.; Guner, Yusuf
In this study, rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) (162.7 +/- 3.03 g) and brown trout (Salmo trutta forma fario) (160.9 +/- 2.94 g) were transferred to full-strength seawater (36.5 gl(-1)) for directly and gradually (21 days), then changes in gill Na+-K+-ATPase activity and size of chloride cells associated with environmental salinity were investigated and also survival of trouts were evaluated in seawater. All fish died when brown trouts were transferred into seawater directly but rainbow trouts survived 50 - 58.3 %. However, significant difference was recorded between brown and rainbow trouts in terms of survival rates by gradual acclimation. Survival of brown trout and rainbow trout that were transferred in seawater gradually, was 66.7 - 75 % and 83.3 - 91.7 %, respectively (p < 0.05). Gill chloride cell sizes in both species increased at 36.5 gl(-1) salinity. The lowest sectional area of chloride cells was determined at the point of death in brown trouts which were transferred directly. Following direct transfer to seawater, the largest sectional area of chloride cells were determined in rainbow trout. There are significant differences between acclimated and non-acclimated fish in terms of chloride cell sizes and Na+-K+-ATPase activities (p < 0.05). The highest gill Na+-K+-ATPase activity was in brown trouts which were transferred gradually, while the lowest activity was detected in freshwater phase. According to the results, gradually acclimated trouts can perform better adaptation than their directly acclimated counterparts.

Kizak, Volkan; Guner, Yusuf; Turel, Murat; Can, Erkan; Kayim, Murathan
Rainbow trout is an intensively cultured species because of their more cultivable character than brown trout. Culture of brown trout could not be expanded due to low growth performance of brown trout compared to rainbow trout. This experiment was conducted in a commercial trout farm, Aegean area (Turkey). Growth performances and survivals of rainbow and brown trouts from fry to fingerling was observed for 155 days. Growth performances, feed conversion rates (FCR) and survivals were determined. Initial weights of rainbow and brown trouts were 0.1 +/- 0.01 g. Final weights were 26.5 +/- 5.19 and 12.97 +/- 2.74 g, respectively at the end of the experiment. Survival and FCR of rainbow and brown trouts were 83.9, 80 and 0.59, 0.61% respectively. As a result, there is a similarity between these two trout species in point of survivals and FCR's although, growth performance was obviously better than brown trout in early development of rainbow trout.
