Black Gills, Algae Fouling
Black Gills, Algae Fouling — Caused by fungal/bacterial infection, dirty bottom, organic matter on gills; often with polluted water.
Symptoms
Gills turn black/dark brown, covered with algae/sludge. Breathing difficulty, morning surfacing, reduced feeding.
Risk Level
Impacts respiration → oxygen deficit, mortality when DO drops. Signals severe environmental deterioration.
Treatment Protocol
1. Fungi and protozoa on the gills: WORK COP PLUS 1 bottle (1 kg)/1,000m³, apply at 5-6 pm (routine prevention: 1 bottle/1,500m³ every 10 days).
2. After 24h: seed SOILMAX 1 pack/2,000m³ for bottom recovery.
3. Boost immunity: AQUAMOS in feed 3-5 g/kg, 5 consecutive days.
4. Siphon bottom if heavily polluted.
5. Maximum aeration.
6. Check and treat NH3, H2S if present.
