Use of salt during transportation of air breathing pirarucu juveniles (Arapaima gigas) in plastic bags (2006, background): “Gomes et al. (2003c) also obtained low cortisol responses after transportation of pirarucu juvenile (1kg) in plastic bag without salt.”
Cage culture of tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) in a central Amazon floodplain lake (2006, background): “Tambaqui raised in cages at different stocking densities presented a normal glucose range, 50–70 mg/dL ( Gomes et al., 2003; Chagas et al., 2003).”
Multiple determinants of welfare in farmed fish: stocking density, disturbance, and aggression in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) (2007, unknown): “Mortality and plasma glucose and cortisol levels are significantly higher in tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) following a short period at high density (Gomes et al. 2003), but no effect was reported for similar experiments in the red porgy (Pagrus pagrus, Pavlidis et al.”
