Summary The keys to minimize disease outbreaks on your fish farm are maintenance of good water quality, proper nutrition and sanitation. Prevention of disease outbreaks is more rewarding and cost-effective than treatment of dying fish. Disease treatments should never be applied in a haphazard fashion. When needed, chemical or antibiotic treatment should be targeted at a specific problem. Any management deficiencies in water quality management, nutritional management, or sanitation should be corrected. Fish which do not respond to a correctly administered treatment should be reevaluated by a fish health professional. -------------------------------------------------------- Footnotes 1.
