Reasonable acclimation contributes to alleviate stress in fish transport and is one of the effective measures to improve fish welfare. Juvenile Siberian hybrid sturgeon (Acipenser baerii ♀ × A. schrenckii ♂) were used as the research subject, and low-temperature acclimation group (15 °C, T15), contr...
