We rear fish under conditions that suit their biological needs and minimise stress, aggression and injury.
We monitor frequently the health status of our fish and respond rapidly if it is compromised.
In Qmarine, fish welfare is addressed under two headings, Health management and Farming practices.
The broad requirements for welfare consist of good health management aimed at rearing fish under conditions that suit their biological needs and good farm management and husbandry practices, aimed to minimise stress, aggression and injury.
Health management is based on frequent monitoring of the health status of the fish, with rapid response when this status is compromised, using only the permitted medicines as prescribed by specialist veterinarians.
