Реферат: An apparatus for facilitating the treatment of parasites on fish has a conduit (100) with first (104) and second (105) open ends and an internal passage to accommodate a fish (101) passing from the first end to the second end through the internal passage. A light source (103) is adapted to illuminate a section of the internal passage radially inwardly from substantially all sides simultaneously, such that a fish moving through said section is illuminated from substantially all sides when the light source is activated. A detecting means (102, l02a) is provided for detecting a fish moving through the conduit. A control means is configured to activate the light source in response to the detection of a fish by the detection means. The detecting means is positioned relative to the light source, and the control means is configured to activate the light source, only when the eyes of the fish are beyond the section illuminated by the light source. In this way the fish can be treated for sea lice infestations by irradiating them with light of a suitable wavelength, without damaging the eyes of the fish.
