One of my works regarding parasitic infection in lumpfish is now published. This is collaborative work with New England Aquarium. They exhibit scarce and valuable fish in their aquarium, so that prevention and treatment of disease is critical for their business. They observed clonic death of lumpfish due to parasitic infection and we identified it as Myxobolus albi. Next step is to control vertical and horizontal infection to protect other health fish.
