Tropical aquaculture offer comparison: fry, feed, fish health and AI disease monitoring

Use neutral references (Offer A, B, C). Provider names and evidence documents stay in the confidential, human-reviewed process. Your entries stay in this browser only; nothing is saved to FishMatch Group or sent.

1. Species and life stage

   Ask for: Exact species (and line or strain where relevant) and the life stage covered: broodstock, fry, fingerling, nursery or grow-out.

   Evidence for one species or stage does not transfer to another.

   Offer A

   Offer A: Species and life stage evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

   Offer B

   Offer B: Species and life stage evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

2. Water conditions

   Ask for: Salinity, temperature range, dissolved oxygen, pH/alkalinity and water source in the trial and at your site, with tropical conditions stated explicitly.

   Different water conditions make results non-comparable.

   Offer A

   Offer A: Water conditions evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

   Offer B

   Offer B: Water conditions evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

3. Disease baseline

   Ask for: Pathogens present or screened, diagnostic method and laboratory, and the site's prior disease history during the trial.

   Without a baseline, a lower disease rate cannot be attributed to the product.

   Offer A

   Offer A: Disease baseline evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

   Offer B

   Offer B: Disease baseline evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

4. Trial design

   Ask for: Number of farms or units, replicates, comparison group, duration, who ran the trial and whether it was independently reviewed.

   A single demonstration is not a controlled trial.

   Offer A

   Offer A: Trial design evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

   Offer B

   Offer B: Trial design evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

5. Sensor and detection accuracy

   Ask for: Stated accuracy, sensitivity and specificity against a reference method (laboratory test or manual count) under your water conditions, plus drift and fouling behaviour.

   Accuracy measured in other water or species is not your accuracy.

   Offer A

   Offer A: Sensor and detection accuracy evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

   Offer B

   Offer B: Sensor and detection accuracy evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

6. False-alert handling

   Ask for: How false alarms and missed detections are measured and reported, who reviews an alert, and which qualified person decides the response.

   An AI alert is a prompt for checking, not a diagnosis.

   Offer A

   Offer A: False-alert handling evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

   Offer B

   Offer B: False-alert handling evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

7. Offline operation

   Ask for: Which functions keep working without internet or cloud access: local alarms, data buffering and manual fallback during power or network loss.

   Cloud-only functions stop when connectivity fails.

   Offer A

   Offer A: Offline operation evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

   Offer B

   Offer B: Offline operation evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

8. API and data ownership

   Ask for: Export formats, API access, who owns farm data and any models trained on it, data retention, and deletion when the contract ends.

   Unclear data rights can lock a farm into one provider.

   Offer A

   Offer A: API and data ownership evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

   Offer B

   Offer B: API and data ownership evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

9. Cybersecurity

   Ask for: User access controls, update and patch policy, encryption, remote-access arrangements and incident notification.

   Connected control systems add operational risk that needs an owner.

   Offer A

   Offer A: Cybersecurity evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

   Offer B

   Offer B: Cybersecurity evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

10. Local calibration and service

    Ask for: Who calibrates sensors and models locally and how often, response times, spare parts and operator training in your country.

    Remote support alone may not keep sensors or models calibrated.

    Offer A

    Offer A: Local calibration and service evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

    Offer B

    Offer B: Local calibration and service evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

11. Traceability records

    Ask for: Lot or batch identifiers, origin and movement records, what is captured automatically versus manually, and whether records export for buyer or authority checks.

    A traceability label does not prove record completeness.

    Offer A

    Offer A: Traceability records evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

    Offer B

    Offer B: Traceability records evidenceNot reviewed yetDocumented evidence receivedStated, no evidence yetNot providedNot applicable (note why)Note (document, page or reason)

12. Scale-up and commissioning plan

    Ask for: Steps from trial to farm scale, acceptance tests, commissioning responsibilities, staff training and what happens if performance is not reproduced.

    Pilot results are not a commissioning guarantee.
