A Partial List of Sources of U.S. Professional Experts in Aquatic Animal Health for Temperate/Tropical Aquaculture with emphasis in the Aquarium/Ornamental Pond Sector

There are well over a thousand professional experts who qualify under this category.  Particularly see the member directories of the AFS American Fisheries Society and its Fish Health Section, WAA World Aquaculture Association, IAAAM International Association of Aquatic Animal Medicine, EAFP European Association of Fish Pathologists, and so on.

 Also see on the Internet 'North American List of Fish Health Contacts by Affiliation," by Richard C. Nelson, 1995
(http://directory.ifas.ufl.edu/); also available at http://www.glfc.org/fishmgmt/naof95.htm. While this is more than a decade out of date, it should be urged that a current version be made available through the Internet.

Another list is "Aquatic Animal Health Contacts by State for Individuals Transporting Fish Across State Lines" by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services http://www.agr.state.nc.us/aquacult/statecontacts.html.
