Summary, Etc. Note: |
Abstract: Quinaldine (2-methlquinone) was an effective anesthetic for yearling Atlantic and landlock salmon and brook and lake trout in waters rangeing from 10 to 40 ppm total hardnes and temperatures ranging from 36 degrees to 40 degrees Fahrenheit. A concentration of 15 ppm was satisfactory for marking and general handling of salmon and brook trout. Quinaldine is 1/24th as expensive as MS-222, and in view of the excellent results this drug warrants wider use as a fish anesthetic. |
