Fish were fed at 3.5% body weight/day. Florfenicol concentration was less than 0.25ng (detectable level). Treatment was not successful in controlling columnaris. Feed rates within approximately 6-16% of target level for this trial. No significant pathological effect on posterior kidney, liver or intestine. Lower survival and infection in fish compared to 2% feeding.
