內容簡介

With fish health experts being increasingly called upon to provide answers about disease outbreaks in fishery populations, Dr. Noga has compiled the most comprehensive reference book available regarding fish diagnostics. Divided into three sections: methods for diagnosing fish diseases, problem list, and methods for treating fish diseases, the book will guide the reader through the most commonly encountered fish diseases and provide the knowledge to manage those diseases effectively. It can be used by people engaged in fish culture and husbandry, as well as fish diagnostics, research, or teaching.
