FIGURE 37.7 Microscopic view of a planktonic bloom consisting of Microcystis spp., Oscillatoria spp., and Anabaena spp. collected from a fish pond on the Clarence River, New South Wales, Australia. The ponds were used for culturing silver perch (Bidyanus bidyanus) (40x magnification). 

Off-flavors have also been reported in silver perch (Bidyanus bidyanus) from Australian fish farms (Rowland et al., 1995). Microscopic examination of the planktonic blooms reveals a wide variety of cyanobacterial species (Figure 37.7) and mouse bioassays show that they can be toxic (unpublished). In rainbow tront farms in the United Kingdom, the cause of off-flavors was unknown until a stndy attribnted it to blooms of Oscillatoria spp. in the rivers that feed the trout farms (Robertson et al., 2006). Levels of geosmin in fish tissue were typically in the range of 1.0-3.0 Tg/kg, while...
