Application of Copper Sulfate in Aquaculture

- Jul 11, 2017 -

Copper sulfate in aquaculture applications: 1, prevention and treatment of fish and

sulfuric acid can be used to prevent protozoa caused by fish disease (such as:
eggworm, cryptosporidiosis, fish farm, caterpillars , insect disease, and crustacean-
induced fish diseases (such as Chinese flea. The quanchipose concentration of
drugs generally in spring and autumn is 0.7-0.8 ppm (copper sulfate and ferrous
sulfate ratio). 5:2 or 6:2, Copper Sulfate only in the 1 ppm below); summer should
be reduced to 0.5 ~ 0.6ppm Medication time as far as possible to choose sunny at
noon, the entire pool. poured evenly, after the medication to do a good job to
rescue the floating fish head from the preparatory work Copper sulfate and
potassium permanganate (5: 2) in combination, at 10 degrees below the water
temperature. 0.5ppm treatment of oblique tube disease. Copper sulfate and citric
acid (3:2) in combination, water at 0.15ppm to treat small melon bug disease.
Copper sulfate 0.7ppm can cure winter broth of ciliate disease. Copper sulfate
0.7ppm and 0.4ppm of the net grass use, first with copper sulfate, after the net and
moist soil (1: 100) mix well after splashing can kill the moss. Copper sulfate
0.7ppm every other day and then once again to kill rotifers and backbone snail;
interval of 12 hours and then once to kill the snail, snail and shrimp pond red tide
creatures (naked algae, trilobacteria, etc).
1 ppm of copper sulfate can kill rotifer in water to prevent hypoxia caused by
excessive breeding of rotifers. Copper sulfate 0.5ppm and rhubarb 1ppm combined
with the treatment of bacterial diseases, every 3-4 days and then a treatment of
grass carp bleeding.
2, the fish medicine bath commonly used bath concentration of 8ppm aqueous
solution mixture (copper sulfate and ferrous sulfate ratio of 5:2) or copper sulfate 8
ppm plus bleach powder 10 ppm bath aqueous solution mixture during 10-30
minutes. These two formulations can kill the body surface and gills in bacteria,
protozoa; on the formation of cystic cells is also effective.
3, tools, fish food market disinfection with 20ppm, copper sulfate solution soak for
half an hour, can kill protozoa. Food disinfection can be done regularly during the
fishing season. Each time with 100 grams of copper sulfate, ferrous sulfate 40
grams. Dissolved in the water spilled around the food market, control area in the
80-100 square meters, the first drug after feeding the fish, once a day, once every
2 to 3 days. For the prevention and treatment of protozoan diseases.
