All have been used extensively in nutritional studies with finfish larvae and are commercially manufactured. Aside from dedicated microdiet manufacturing methods as described above, many feed manufacturer are using extruders to produce large particles that are then crushed and sieved to the required particle sizes.

The number of diseases reported in finfish and the methods used to detect the causative agents is vast (reviewed by Adams, 2009). The diseases currently listed as notifiable by the OIE include epizootic haematopoietic necrosis (EHN) epizootic ulcerative syndrome (EUS) gyrodactylosis (Gywdactylus 5fl/ ris) infectious haematopoietic necrosis (IHN) infectious salmon anaemia (ISA) koi herpesvirus disease (KHVD) red sea bream iridoviral disease (RBID) spring viraemia of carp (SVC) viral haemorrhagic septicaemia (VHS) (OIE, 2011).
