A new edition of the Guide to Using Drugs, Biologics, and Other Chemicals in Aquaculture has just been released.  The new edition includes updates regarding recent changes to antibiotic drug accessibility and descriptions of the most common fish diseases.

All aquaculture operations have occasional demand for drugs, biologics, and other chemicals, collectively referred to as “regulated products.” The Guide was developed by the American Fisheries Society, Fish Culture Section, as a comprehensive introduction to the use of regulated products in aquaculture and a resource for fisheries professionals.

The Guide provides updated information on aquaculture drugs and contacts for providing feedback. A companion treatment calculator is available in Excel formats. These tools are indispensable for those in need of detailed information regarding the legal and judicious use of these products in aquaculture.
