Trial data for Field Effectiveness of florfenicol and oxytetracycline dihydrate in Controlling Mortality in Walleye (Sander vitreus) due to Motile Aeromonad Infections
April 16, 2024
This is the mortality and water quality data for 2 efficacy trials of medicated feed for controlling mortality in Walleye (Sander vitreus) due to motile aeromonad infections. Top-coated feed with florfenicol or oxytetracycline or control feed were administered in both trials to fingerling walleye. Daily mortality counts and water quality measurements for dissolved oxygen, pH, temperature are included as csv files.

Summary of data collected during field efficacy trials of florfenicol and oxytetracycline dihydrate in controlling mortality in walleye (Sander vitreus) because of motile Aeromonad infections
Motile Aeromonad septicemia is a substantial concern during fish propagation and can be catastrophic for fish hatcheries. We tested the efficacy of two different drugs (florfenicol and oxytetracycline) offered with feed as possible treatment options to control mortality because of motile Aeromonad infection. We offered top-coated medicated feeds to hatchery-reared Sander vitreus (walleye) that wer
