Abstract
Abstract Treatment concentrations and procedures are presented for using antimycin A in live-haul tanks to kill green sunfish (Lepomis cyanellus) without harming channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus). Fish are exposed to antimycin A for 15 min and then transferred to a production pond. The concentrations required for an effective treatment vary from 25 to 200 μg/L, depending on water temperature and pH. Treating fish in live-haul tanks prior to stocking results in substantial cost savings when compared to a whole-pond treatment.
