“…The majority of mortality (80%) occurred in fish 80 to 84 mm FL. This is in agreement with results from other studies that typically report higher mortalities in smaller individuals following tagging [18,21,24,25]. For example, Acolas et al [21] demonstrated that increases in length of juvenile brown trout (41 to 70 mm FL) significantly enhanced the probability of survival after implantation of 11.5 mm PIT tags.…”

“…A growing number of studies have addressed the adverse effects of PIT tagging on smaller fish and/or various life stages [12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. In juvenile salmonids, the impact of smaller PIT tags (11 to 12 mm) on growth and mortality have generally been negligible (for example, brown trout Salmo trutta [3]; Atlantic salmon Salmo salar [19]) and tag retention rates are usually high (that is, 97% to 100% [3,19,20], see [21] for an exception).…”

Background: A laboratory experiment was conducted to assess the potential impacts of surgically implanted 23 and 32 mm passive integrated transponder (PIT) tags on survival, growth, and body condition of juvenile Atlantic salmon Salmo salar. Rate of tag retention and healing of the tagging incision were also evaluated. Atlantic salmon of three different size classes (I: 80 to 99 mm fork length (FL), II: 100 to 119 mm FL, III: 120 to 135 mm FL) were allocated to each of five experimental treatment groups: control, sham-operated (surgery without PIT-tag implantation), 23 mm PIT-tag implantation with and without suture closure of the incision, and 32 mm PIT-tag implantation without suture closure. Results: Over the 35-day experiment, mortality occurred only among fish tagged with 32 mm PIT tags (14%) and all fish larger than 103 mm FL survived. Non-sutured Atlantic salmon between 80 and 99 mm FL implanted with 23 mm PIT tags had a significantly lower mean specific growth rate of mass compared with untagged (control and sham-operated) and sutured conspecifics. However, no significant difference in growth was found between untagged fish and 23 mm PIT-tagged fish 100 to 135 mm FL. Implantation of 32 mm PIT tags decreased growth in all size classes. Regardless of size class, body condition of the fish was not affected by PIT tagging. Retention rates of 23 mm PIT tags with and without suture closure were 100% and 97%, respectively; retention of 32 mm PIT tags without suture closure was 69%. At the end of the experiment, tagging incisions without suture closure were generally well-healed. Fungal infection and inflammation around the incision site occurred only when suture was used, in 46% of size class I, 21% of size class II and 38% of size class III.

“…Mortality, stress by handling and tag losses are among the causes of low recapture rates (Porto et al, 1999;Smithson, Johnston, 1999 Josephson et al, 2008;Carvalho-Souza et al, 2010;Soula et al, 2012) as well as low mortality caused by tagging procedures (e.g. Riley et al, 1992).…”

Given the importance of fish movement to the dynamics and maintenance of stream dwelling fish communities from the Atlantic Forest, we analysed patterns of fish movement in a coastal stream from Southeastern Brazil, using mark-recapture technique. Displacement distance of each species were presented and discussed considering seasonal (rainy and dry) and body size patterns. We marked 10 species along the stream and recaptured 440 (34.6%) of the 1,270 marked fishes. The species with significant number of upstream moving individuals were Astyanax janeiroensis, Characidium interruptum, Astyanax hastatus, Parotocinclus maculicauda and Awaous tajasica. Only Pimelodella lateristriga presented significant differences between resident and moving individuals. Characidium interruptum and A. tajasica demonstrated greater downstream and upstream movement, respectively, moving up to 2,100 m. Even after controlling for species identity we found no significant correlation between fish length and individual displacement distance. Fishes moved longer distances during the rainy season, in accordance to the breeding season. Patterns of fish movement were in agreement to life-history traits of many of the studied species and can be reflecting specific behaviour and morphologies.Keywords: Coastal stream, Migration, Reproduction, Stream dwelling fish.Considerando-se a importância do movimento de peixes para a dinâmica e manutenção das comunidades de peixes de riachos da mata Atlântica, nós analisamos os padrões de movimento de peixes de um riacho costeiro do sudeste do Brasil, usando a técnica da marcação e recaptura. Avaliamos a distância do deslocamento de cada espécie e também se os padrões de movimento apresentavam alguma relação com a estação do ano (chuva e seca) e o tamanho do corpo. Marcamos 10 espécies ao longo do riacho e recapturamos 400 (34.6%) dos 1.270 peixes marcados. As espécies com número significativo de indivíduos se movendo para cima foram Astyanax janeiroensis, Characidium interruptum, Astyanax hastatus, Parotocinclus maculicauda e Awaous tajasica. Apenas Pimelodella lateristriga apresentou diferenças significativas entre os indivíduos residentes e em movimento. Characidium interruptum e A. tajasica foram as espécies com maior movimento tanto para baixo como para cima, respectivamente, se movendo até mais de 2.100 m. Mesmo após controlar a identidade das espécies, não registramos correlação significativa entre o comprimento e a distância individual do deslocamento. Registramos maiores densidades de peixes se movendo para montante durante a época de chuvas, em coincidência com a estação reprodutiva. Os padrões de movimento registrados estão de acordo com os componentes da história de vida de várias das espécies estudadas, e podem estar refletindo componentes morfológicos e comportamentais específicos.Palavras-chave: Migração, Peixes de riacho, Riacho costeiro, Reprodução.

“…Las diferencias anatómicas, las diferentes condiciones de calidad de agua, las diversas magnitudes de resistencia, la susceptibilidad a la manipulación y términos de crecimiento, son unas de las razones que fundamentan su evaluación para cada especie (Davis et al, 2004, Jerry et al, 2001. En este sentido, para este estudio la ausencia de diferencias en el peso, talla y tasa de crecimiento específica entre peces marcados y no marcados en ambos experimentos, concuerda con lo reportado por Soula et al, (2012) en el bocinegro (Pagrus pagrus), quien evaluó el VIE en relación con el crecimiento, mortalidad, tiempo de manejo y tasa de perdida, encontrando que no existió efecto alguno sobre las variables, al igual que lo demostrado por otros autores (Soula et al, 2009, Zeeh y Wood, 2009, Liu et al, 2011. De igual manera revela que no hay efecto sobre el crecimiento de los peces de 4.59 y 8.9 g. Estos pesos en promedio demuestran que son los más adecuados para iniciar el marcaje con VIE, según estudios similares que han examinado su efecto en otras especies de peces, por ejemplo, el nulo efecto sobre el crecimiento fue demostrado en peces de dorada (Sparus auratus L) de 7 a 18 gramos (Astorga et al, 2005), en peces de bocinegro de 2 gramos, de igual manera como lo mencionó Jerry et al, (2001).…”

“…En relación con la retención del implante, se han referenciado diferentes estimados como por ejemplo Soula et al, (2012), quienes obtuvieron 75% de retención en bocinegro durante 15 y 30 días de estudio en dos tallas diferentes. Para este estudio de 30 días, un 94% en promedio para la posición corporal del dorso demuestra una elevada confiabilidad en su uso, por encima del 57.5% obtenido en el opérculo, reconociendo que aún falta evaluar esta variable por mucho más tiempo.…”

Evaluación del sistema de marcaje físico visible (V.I.E) en cachama blanca (Piaractus brachypomus) 23 ARTÍCULO ORIGINAL/ORIGINAL ARTICLE Evaluación del sistema de marcaje físico visible (V.I.E) en cachama blanca (Piaractus brachypomus) ResumenLa identificación de individuos en la piscicultura se ha venido estableciendo como un proceso estándar, lo que implica la utilización de un sistema de marcaje eficiente, práctico y económico. Este estudio evaluó el sistema de marcaje físico visible (V.I.E) con relación al crecimiento, sobrevivencia, retención y visibilidad en alevinos de cachama blanca (Piaractus brachypomus). Para este propósito, fueron usados 400 peces en dos experimentos con 200 peces cada uno; experimento 1 (4.5 ± 0.9 g) y experimento 2 (8.26 ± 1.94 g) evaluadas durante un periodo de 30 días, repartidos al azar en 4 tanques de 250 litros. Después de un periodo de aclimatación de 8 días y siguiendo las indicaciones del fabricante, se marcaron 128 peces con 8 colores: Azul, rojo, verde, amarillo, naranja, rosado (fluorescentes), café y morado (no fluorescentes), en dos posiciones corporales (dorso y opérculo) definidas en ensayos preliminares. Los animales no marcados (72) pero sometidos al mismo procedimiento, se utilizaron como control. Los peces en su totalidad, se midieron y pesaron al inicio y al final de cada experimento. Para ninguno de los experimentos se determinó efecto del implante sobre el crecimiento (p<0,05) entre los peces marcados y el control. La sobrevivencia en ambos experimentos fue del 100%. La retención en el dorso y opérculo en promedio para los dos experimentos fue de 94.11% y 57.52%, respectivamente. La visibilidad con luz UV y sin luz UV en el opérculo fue de 96.6% y 77.7% y para el dorso fue de 92.6% y 61.5%, respectivamente. En conclusión la posición más viable para el uso del V.I.E en animales de baja talla, es el dorso debido a su alto porcentaje de retención, preferiblemente utilizando los colores fluorescentes bajo exposición a luz UV.Palabras clave: crecimiento, fluorescencia, identificación, implante.
