OK Folks - if you know of publications, that normal mortals can read and will help us understand our fish - Keep them coming.. and EB can delete this post when appropriate..

Clearly, that SILVER PERCH document is one of the best for mortals to understand, and it contains ALL the basics for many fish diseases and treatments..

I'm interested because I just slaughtered ALL my fish and I wanted to know why.. .. when I KNEW the water vitals were great..

( But no discussions HERE )
