Summary The project aims to generate new practical knowledge on how to reduce the incidence of malformations in the major fish species used in European aquaculture production.
(1) Identify optimal rearing temperatures for early life stages of the major European aquaculture species, given as a table specifying lethal and teratogenic temperatures for different stages of early life; (2) Identify nutritional components influencing the incidence of malformations, concentrating on bone mineralization and muscle growth as affected by dietary components in starter diets and in fast growing juveniles; (3) Identify abiotic factors of tank environment that influence the incidence and development of malformations, including tank hydrodynamics as well as gas supplementation.
