I recently spoke to a friend who is a consultant to fish farming enterprises.
Apparently in the operations where the fish are in tanks, although the fish apparently appear to be "healthy", the workers handling them are often getting weird skin infections. These to date have not been identified, at least the "bug" causing the problem has not been isolated. The infections appear to sometimes be a mild rash and at other times cause skin peeling, etc. They do not respond to any antibiotics. All sorts of topical medications have been used in treatment with poor results. Would CS be of any use, and, if so, what would be the best way to apply it in this situation? I did not mention it to my friend as I thought I would ask here first. He is an academic and would require some sort of scientific "papers" to back up any statements. Personally, I don't approve of fish farming and am not surprised at this, but as nothing is helping these people I just wondered about CS? Can anyone offer any advice that can be passed on, please?
