Seeking help
There are a number of ways of seeking expert or professional help if your fish are unwell. Veterinary surgeons by virtue of their professional training are in a good position to diagnose disease in a range of species, and also will have access to specialist fish vets through their professional links. Only vets can prescribe certain medicinal products, such as antibiotics.
There are also other fish health professionals such as fish biologists who can give very helpful advice on fish care and fish diseases, as well as experienced retailers and hobbyists. Don’t forget that fish are animals and deserve high quality care.
