  • Aug 2014: 10 hospitalized; shellfish

toxicity up to 3,500 µg STX/100g (DoF)

www.harmfulalgae.info Causative organism of PSP incidents in Kuantan was later confirmed as A. tamiyavanichii based on morphology, molecular detection and the toxin profile. Research monitoring effort: 2015‐2016

  • No recurrence of bloom,
  • Low densities

Fish kill Events

  • Caused millions losses in finfish

mariculture.

  • Mechanisms of fish kill:

– mucus compound at gills; – low oxygen level in water due to degradation of blooms; – production of ammonia by certain dinoflagellate species.

  • Focus :

HAB‐related fish kills

  • Fish kill incident happened, started on Feb 11, 2014; became

more serious on the following three subsequent days.

  • It last for at least two weeks.

Type of affected cages cultured fishes :

‐ Red Snapper (Lutjanus sp.) ‐ Estuary Cod (Epinephelus coioides) ‐ Seabass/Siakap (Lates calcarifer) ‐ Paddletail Snapper (Lutjanus gibbus) ‐ Fourfinger Threadfin (Eleutheronema tradactylum)

Aquaculture losses:

>100 tonnes of fishes from 10 Fish farms (western Johor strait) *Losses estimated in a farm about RM150,000 (The Star, 2014).

Recurrent bloom in 2015

Teng et al. 2016 (Harmful Algae News)

  • Mass mortality of farmed fishes (and broodstock
  • f fishes) and wild‐demersal fishes.
  • Unarmored Karlodinium‐like cells dominated the

samples, with maximum cell densities up to 2×108 cells/L.

Species identity was later confirmed as K. australe by single cell PCR and qPCR method.

Ca pa c ity b uild ing

  • Aug 2014: 3rd National workshop on HAB and biotoxins
  • Nov 2015: A workshop on national shellfish sanitation

program was held to finalize the documentation of SOP

  • n HAB and shellfish monitoring.
  • July 2016: A workshop on fish kill

was organized by Fisheries Department as a preparation for the staffs in the events of fish kill in aquaculture area.

Summary

  • HABs is one of the threat to mariculture industries; HABs species

involved are diverse in nature (mechanism of fish kills) and effects.

  • SOP is needed in dealing with occurrence of HABs and fish kills

incidences (before, during and after).

  • Site selection, control of farmed organisms, carrying capacity and

good farming practices are important for sustainable mariculture industries.

  • Long term and systematic capacity building should be developed to

address the national and regional needs. Strengthen collaborations between countries and information sharing are crucial to mitigate the transboundary issues of HABs.
