In aquaculture industrial field, an automatic management and control system is needed to cope with the difficulties such as expensive wage, ripe age of management worker and risk according to the unexpected change of environmental conditions in the aquarium. This paper introduces an automatic aquarium monitoring and control system. The system is developed using PC single board computer. A PC can be connected to multi-single hoard computers, and the communication between PC and single board computers is based on RS-422/485 interfacing method. The physical data of pH, DO, temperature and water level etc. are real-timely treated in the single board computer though individual transducers, transfered to the main monitoring PC through RS-422/485 communication, and those data are graphically shown on the PC monitor. Furthermore, the environmental circumstance can be monitored through the image processing system, and the emergency system can be operated under the condition of environmental incident such as electric power stoppage, DO deficiency, pump shut down and low level water etc.

The 3D contents are getting more attentions in various areas, such as in movies, advertising, games and exhibition contents. There are many authoring tools for making 3D Models and contents. However, those authoring tools take considerable amount of time to learn and to make 3D contents. In this paper, we propose the 3D model conversion algorithm to make 3D models from 2D pictures drawn on the touch screens or papers. The vertex animation method also proposed for the interactive 3D aquarium. The proposed vertex animation algorithm was tested for virtual 3D water creatures and compared with human-made animation. An Interactive 3D aquarium was implemented by using those proposed algorithms. Thus the simplicity and effectiveness of the algorithms can be applied to diverse industries.

Detecting of the object in image processing is substantial but it depends on the object itself and the environment. An object can be detected either by its shape or color. Color is an essential for pattern recognition and computer vision. It is an attractive feature because of its simplicity and its robustness to scale changes and to detect the positions of the object. Generally, color of an object depends on its characteristics of the perceiving eye and brain. Physically, objects can be said to have color because of the light leaving their surfaces. Here, we conducted experiment in the aquarium fish tank. Different color of fish robots are mimic the natural swim of fish. Unfortunately, in the underwater medium, the colors are modified by attenuation and difficult to identify the color for moving objects. We consider the fish motion as a moving object and coordinates are found at every instinct of the aquarium to detect the position of the fish robot using OpenCV color detection. In this paper, we proposed to identify the position of the fish robot by their color and use the position data to control the fish robot gathering in one point in the fish tank through serial communication using RF module. It was verified by the performance test of detecting the position of the fish robot.

Potamotrygon motoro, also known as the Marble motoro, is a potamodromous freshwater ray native to the basins of the Amazon River. Marble motoros were introduced to South Korea in the 2000s, and, because they are easy to raise, were sold as aquarium fish. The aim of this report is to illustrate a new case involving envenomation by a Marble motoro. A 35-year-old commercial aquarium assistant came to the hospital after being pricked by a Marble motoro. The clinical picture in this case showed acute local pain with minimal systemic manifestations. This patient recovered after receiving symptomatic treatment and wound care. This case of envenomation accentuates the potential for injury among people coming in contact with a venomous Marble motoro.

The genus Proteus has been rarely isolated from cultured fish. In this study, we reported Proteus vulgaris isolated from fish skin lesion of Black-spotted porcupine fish (Diodon hystrix). Identification of f vulgaris was performed by general biological test, including API 20E and API ZYM. The sensitivity of isolated strains to different groups of antibiotics was evaluated using the disc diffusion method. It showed that the isolate is sensitive to ciprofloxacin $(5{\mu}g)$, norfloxacin $(10{\mu}g)$, enrofloxacin $(5{\mu}g)$, cefotaxime $(30{\mu}g)$.

This paper researches a way of detecting fish robots moving in an aquarium. The fish robot was designed and developed for interactions with humans in aquariums. It was studied merely to detect a moving object in an aquarium because we need to find the positions of moving fish robots. The intention is to recognize the location of robotic fish using an image processing technique and a video camera. This method is used to obtain the velocity for each pixel in an image, and assumes a constant velocity in each video frame to obtain positions of fish robots by comparing sequential video frames. By using this positional data, we compute the distance between fish robots using a mathematical expression, and determine which fish robot is leading and which one is lagging. Then, the lead robot will wait for the lagging robot until it reaches the lead robot. The process runs continuously. This system is exhibited in the Busan Science Museum, satisfying a performance test of this algorithm.

A series of rearing experiments were conducted to determine the growth rates and feed conversion efficiencies of tilapia in accordance with body size or age in nearly total closed system glass aquariums ($270\;\ell$ each in water volume) and concrete tanks ($4000\;\ell$) from April 10 to October 16, 1987. The fish used for the experiments was a Japanese strain of Oreochromis niloticus, and the size of the fish ranged from 7 g to more than 1,000 g in body weight. The starting stocking rates for each experimental lot were 10 to 20 kg in the glass aquarium ($3.7{\%}$ to $7.4{\%}$ of water volume) and 200 kg in the concrete tank ($5{\%}$ of water volume). A single experimental rearing term was 14 days with slight variations on occasions. Water temperature was designed to be kept at $26^{\circ}C$ but slight fluctuations were inevitable. Dissolved oxygen level was designed to be maintained at around $3\;mg/\ell$, but it also showed some variations. The ammonia level in the glass aquarium section once reached up to $18\;mg/\ell$, but generally remained at around $4\;mg/\ell$, and in the concrete tank section it was maintained at around $1\;mg/ell$. The feed was composed of mainly soybean meal with a small amount of fish meal as the protein source, and the crude protein content was about $32{\%}$. Mean daily growth rate was $3.5{\%}$ of body weight with 0.9 in food conversion ratio in the glass aquarium when the mean weight of fish was around 10 g with gradually reduced performances as the fish grew bigger. When the mean weight was 800 g, mean daily growth rate was $0.5{\%}$ with about 1.5 in food coversion for fish in the glass aquarium, and $0.8{\%}$ and 1.6 for fish in the concrete tank, respectively. According to the mean growth rate obtained from this experiment, it was calculated that the fish reared in the concrete tank require 223 days from 50 g to reach 1,000 g which is the ideal size for market in Korea, at the conditions provided as above, and 302 days from 10 g fingerlings to 800 g fish in the glass aquarium conditions of the closed recirculating water system.

In August, 1988, matured adults of devil stinger were collected from Jinhae Bay and Jaran Bay, Kyongsangnam-do, Korea and kept in the aquarium (1 ton) for spawning. The egg development was observed with the eggs laid in the aquarium of adult fish. The diameters of eggs ranged from 1.2 to 1.3 mm (n=6), and no oil globules were found in the eggs. The hatching took place from 26 to 29 hours after eight cells stage at the water temperature of $24.9-26.5^{\circ}C$. The newly hatched larvae were 2.47~3.10 mm in total length with xanthophore on the body and yolk sac. Myomere number was 13+16-17=29-30. Two days after hatching, larvae were 3.61-4.16 mm in total length, and 3 to 4 large spots of melanophore appeared on the large pectoral fin. Three days after hatching, larvae were 3.97-4.29 mm in total length, and the larvae absorved the yolk material completely to become post larvae with 4-5 rays of the pectoral fin. Six days after hatching, larvae attained 4.07-5.46 mm in total length, and 11 rays and 8-9 spots of melanophore were developed on the pectoral fin.
