A case study published in the new issue of Journal of Zoo Aquarium Research investigated infection-related abnormal swimming in an aquarium-housed yellow stingray: 🌊An inner ear infection was thought to be causing the abnormal swimming behaviour. 🌊A meclizine treatment resulted in reduction of abnormal swimming, and increased normal swimming and resting. 🌊Further reduction in abnormal behaviours after the stingray returned to its more complex home habitat, from the isolated treatment tank. --- Read paper (open access): https://lnkd.in/eJ_6fDzq --- #ZooResearch #stingrays #AnimalHealth #animalwelfare

It’s easy to underestimate the work that goes into ensuring swimming pools are clean and safe for use, but behind the scenes of any professional installation are dedicated systems designed to maintain water quality and protect swimmers. We should know – at SEKO we’ve been producing swimming pool chemical dosing systems for use in leisure centres, domestic pools and water parks for decades, so we understand the daily challenges faced by operators. To discover just what’s involved in specifying, fitting and operating swimming pool chemical dosing systems, read this in-depth SEKO case study today: https://lnkd.in/eT8Ez5cj. #seko #sekopumps #swimmingpools #swimmingpooldosing #chlorinedosing #infectioncontrol #viruscontrol #chemicaldosing #dosingpumps #casestudy

Standing Water Trap #3 - Drain swimming pool covers. Clean and chlorinate your swimming pools, outdoor saunas, and hot tubs. If you use plastic swimming pools for your kids and pets, make sure you empty them between uses. Mosquitoes breed in stagnant, standing fresh water, laying hundreds of eggs at a time. Even small amounts of water can help mosquitoes multiply when left stagnant for at least 4 to 7 days. This week we're featuring all the common water traps you might find on your property. Eliminate the standing water to reduce your mosquito populations this spring. #mosquitoes #mosquitobites #mosquitorepellent #mosquitocontrol

With Summer approaching, we wanted to remind pool owners of the important regulations in Alabama to prevent swimming pool injuries. 💦 Pool owners must maintain four-sided isolation fencing that is at least five feet high, with self-latching gates. 🧸 Toys must not be left in the pool as it may be considered an attractive nuisance for nearby children. 🏊♂️ Some pools (if they are large enough) must have a lifeguard on-duty. See the full list of rules ➡️ https://bit.ly/44eymny #poolsafety #swimmingpoolinjuries

Summer Planning 🤝 Fall Renovations With temperatures on the rise, aquatic facilities are facing busy days with packed swimming pools. Heightened bather loads create a buildup of sunscreen, debris brought into the swimming pool from the surrounding landscape, and various foreign objects that must be properly filtered out of the pool to maintain health and safety standards. One of the crucial components of this swimming pool function are the pool gutters. Learn how upgrading your swimming pool's gutters can enhance safety and hygiene at your facility in our latest blog, and start planning for necessary renovations this fall. https://hubs.la/Q02zQZrv0

Last year, Wally the Alligator was swimming in my pool and taking pictures with people rubbing his tummy. Today, I have five fish in the chlorinated pool. So they are like super mutant fish. Tomorrow, my Board member's kids are going to go fishing - in my pool. You cannot possibly make up these stories. #penco #pencomanagement #wally #alligator #fish #pool #poolseason #propertymanagement #community #communitymanagement

𝘋𝘪𝘥 𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘒𝘯𝘰𝘸? 💡 Sloths are faster in water than on land. Although they spend most of their time in the trees, sloths are surprisingly good swimmers. They can swim through water three times faster than they can move on the ground! Three-fingered sloths have two more neck vertebrae than any other mammal. This allows them to turn their heads through 270° and effortlessly keep their nose above water when swimming. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/grUiPbEs #Science #DidYouKnow #Sloths #MIDSCI
