It is recommended that fish be at least 35g in size for injection administration. It is recommended that vaccination should preceded exposure to Aeromonas salmonicida by 430 degree days (number of days multiplied by the mean water temperature over the period in degrees Celcius) and IPNV by 817 degree days.
A minimum water temperature of 2°C for vaccination is recommended.
It is essential to mix the vaccine prior to and during treatment to ensure correct consistency of the product for administration/treatment. Oil based vaccines are best injected at 15-20°C to ensure ease of vaccination for vaccinator and to avoid damage to the fish.
