Managing Mercury in Aquaculture
Source water quality: Using water from clean, uncontaminated sources can help to reduce mercury levels in aquaculture systems.
Feed quality: Using high-quality feed that is free from mercury contamination can help to minimize mercury levels in fish.
Water quality management: Good water quality management practices, such as regular water exchange and filtration, can help to reduce mercury levels in aquaculture ponds.
Monitoring: Regular monitoring of mercury levels in water, sediment, and fish tissue can help to identify and address potential problems.
