The viruses affecting the fishes grow at lower temperatures and have specific tolerance to temperature. Most of the viral diseases affecting the fishes are geographically limited. In most of the viral infections, it causes high mortality in fishlings but adults become carrier to these viruses. For this reason, SPF recommenced fish stocks are advocated for sustainable fish farming and aquaculture.
