The Fisheries Commission has dispatched samples of fish, soil and water from the Fujian Fish Farm to the United Kingdom, Singapore and Norway for further investigations to ascertain what caused the death of fish on the farm.
The result of the investigation is expected in two weeks. Director of the Fisheries Commission, Michael Arthur-Dadzie, who disclosed this to journalists in Accra explained that even though research is ongoing into the contaminated fish, there is the need to seek further expert opinions on the matter.
The Chinese-owned fish farm is located at Asutuare in the Shai Osudoku District of the Greater Accra Region.
On Friday, there was a scare among fish consumers when news broke that more than six tonnes of dead tilapia had been discovered on the farm.
