  Anesthesia practices in aquaculture are important for preventing potential stress in fish. For this purpose, interest in natural anesthetic agents as substitute for currently used synthetic anesthetics has increased. In this context, the present study demonstrated the anesthetic efficacy of citronella oil (Cymbopogon nardus) in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) individuals. Based on an artificial neural network (ANN) model derived from preliminary studies, the optimal anesthetic concentration for rainbow trout individuals was estimated as 90 μL L−1. Validation of the concentration predicted by ANN revealed no time-dependent hematological or histological effects on fish to citronella oil. Furthermore, biochemical tests revealed that the partial post-anesthesia increase in ALT and AST values was transient and negligible in light of histological findings. Although oxidative stress was observed during the acute period, the enzymatic activity of SOD and CAT effectively reduced the oxidative damage, demonstrating their role in protecting the fish from oxidative stress. The antioxidant activity observed was temporary, returning to baseline levels without any accompanying tissue damage at the tested concentration. Behavioral monitoring further indicated a swift reduction in motor activity followed by a smooth recovery process, with no evident signs of stress or avoidance behaviour. Overall, these results position citronella oil as a promising natural anesthetic for rainbow trout under the studied parameters. That said, further studies involving various solvents, temperature ranges, and fish species are necessary to comprehensively establish its efficacy and safety.

  Anesthetic potential of geranium (Pelargonium graveolens) oil for two cichlid species, Sciaenochromis fryeri and Labidochromis caeruleus

  Can, Erkan; Kizak, Volkan; Seyhaneyildiz Can, Şafak; Özçiçek, Esin

  The anesthetic potential of geranium oil (Pelargonium graveolens L.) was evaluated in two freshwater aquarium fish species, the electric blue hap (Sciaenochromis fryeri, 2.00 ± 0.61 g) and blue streak hap (Labidochromis caeruleus, 2.31 ± 0.52 g). Fish were exposed to nine concentrations of anesthetic (25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 200, 250, 300 μl L−1). The induction time generally decreased significantly with increasing concentration of geranium oil for both of the fish species. The recovery time increased with the enhancing geranium oil concentration. Deep anesthesia took between 61.19 ± 7.25 s and 165.43 ± 6.78 s for S. fryeri and between 73.32 ± 8.92 s and 171.12 ± 10.74 s for L. caeruleus. Recovery occurred after 96 ± 6.87 s (L. caeruleus), with the longest being 291.45 ± 8.31 s (S. fryeri). The minimal effective concentration was 75 μl L−1 for deep anesthesia for both two species, and 50 μl L−1 was found as the minimal sedative concentration at the stage of loss of equilibrium. These findings suggested that geranium oil is a new potential anesthetic for two ornamental fish species.

  Evaluation of anesthetic potential of rosewood (Aniba rosaeodora) oil as a new anesthetic agent for goldfish (Carassius auratus)

  Kizak, Volkan; Can, Erkan; Danabaş, Durali; Can, Şafak Seyhaneyildiz

  The aim of this research was to investigate the efficacy of rosewood (Aniba rosaeodora) essential oil (EO) as a new herbal anesthetic compared with camphor (Cinnamomum camphora) EO and commonly used chemical agent 2-phenoxyethanol (2-PE) on goldfish (Carassius auratus). The anesthetic efficacies of these herbal EOs and 2-PE were evaluated in goldfish with mean body weight of 7.36 ± 0.77 g. Fish were exposed to each anesthetic concentrations and the lowest effective concentrations (LECs) were established according to deep anesthesia (AD < 3 min) and full recovery (RF < 5 min) times. RD and CP showed anesthetic characteristics and induced AD. The LECs for each anesthetic were established at 250 μl L−1 for RD (AD; RF → 171 ± 2.28 s; 297 ± 7.69 s), 250 μl L−1 for CP (AD; RF → 129 ± 4.18 s; 291 ± 2.81 s) and 700 μl L−1 for 2-PE (AD; RF → 177 ± 2.35 s; 214 ± 4.93 s). At concentrations of 50, 100, 150, 200 μl L−1 for RD, 50, 100, 150 μl L−1 for CP and 400, 500 μl L−1 for 2-PE failed to induce AD in goldfish. There were significantly differences found among RD, CP and 2-PE concentrations in terms of induction and recovery times (p < 0.05). The fastest AD and RF were obtained by 300 μl L−1 CP (120 ± 1.94 s) and 600 μl L−1 2-PE (190 ± 4.34 s), respectively. Fish exposed to 300 μl L−1 RD and 800 μl L−1 2-PE took slightly longer to achieve AD than 300 μl L−1 CP. Induction and recovery times for EOs and 2-PE were significantly dependent on concentrations. Negative relationships was recorded between AD and RF for all anesthetics. No mortality or adverse effects occurred and fish stayed calm during trials. Results showed that RD was found to be an effective anesthetic as well as CP for goldfish and can be used at least 3-fold lower concentrations than 2-PE. In conclusion, rosewood (Aniba rosaeodora) EO, as a new potential anesthetic for fish, proved to be an effective natural agent resulting in rapid induction and recovery.
