An illumination system for cultivation of aquatic animals is disclosed for cultivation of aquatic animals in a volume of water, the cultivation using a feeding system defining a feeding axis in the volume of water. The system comprises at least a first illumination surface positioned in the volume of water and arranged for illuminating the feeding axis. The system also comprises a second illumination surface positioned in the volume of water and arranged for illuminating the feeding axis. The first illumination surface and second illumination surface are different surfaces arranged to illuminate the feeding axis from substantially different directions.

A cephalopod feeder, a cephalopod feeding method using the cephalopod feeder, and a cephalopod fed with the cephalopod feeder. The cephalopod feeder includes a shell having an inner surface spaced apart from an outer surface, the inner surface defining a volume of the shell; and a feed placed at least partly in the volume of the shell.

Generating consensus feeding appetite forecasts include providing a first feeding parameter data set associated with a first feeding parameter to a first feeding appetite forecast model and providing a second feeding parameter data set associated with a second feeding parameter to a second feeding appetite forecast model different from the first forecast model. The first feeding appetite forecast model is adaptively weighted with a first weighting factor relative to a second weighting factor for the second feeding appetite forecast model. An aggregated appetite score based on a combination of the first feeding appetite forecast model using the first weight factor and the second feeding appetite forecast model using the second weight factor. Further, a feeding instruction signal based at least in part on the aggregated appetite score is provided for modifying the operations of a feed control system.

Disclosed is a feedback feeding system pond recirculation with fusion of machine vision and infrared detection. Feeding strategies are provided according to the feeding behavior of fish in cooperative with machine vision technology and infrared sensing technology. The pond recirculating aquaculture is an open environment. The change of natural environment may affect the feedback signal of the fish feeding behavior provided by the machine vision due to the low visibility; or it may affect the feedback signal of the fish feeding behavior provided by the infrared detection because low temperature may decrease feeding intensity. The fusion of these two strategies can solve the problem of intelligent feeding strategies in the pond recirculating aquaculture mode.

A method, and device for removing sea lice from salmon with use of a salmon herding passage tube, with ultrasound transducers on the periphery thereof, in a number sufficient to provide ultrasound treatment of the salmon being herded therethrough at a normal herding rate and at a sufficiently high enough frequency to kill the sea lice. Salmon are herded therethrough, with the application of ultrasound from the ultrasonic. The method and device also include removal of the lice from a salmon cage or enclosure with feeding fish into an enclosure having ultrasound transducers situated on the inner periphery thereof and providing an attraction such as a white light which attracts noxious parasitic aquatic organisms and applying ultrasound from the electronic transducers within the enclosure.
