Professional fish disease, diagnosis and treatment


Fish disease diagnosis? With free instant diagnosis readily available from many sources why pay someone to tell you what's wrong?

We all know the situation - we give some vague description of what is wrong - something along the lines that our fish have been laying about and not feeding. With barely a moments hesitation the fellow-fish keeper or shop assistant tells us what the problem is and how to cure it. Have you ever ask yourself  why can't doctors and vets tell us over the phone what is wrong with us and our pets if it's that easy to diagnose ill-health?

If these free diagnosis were even 50% accurate - it would be a great public service - however all diagnosis made without seeing and examining the patient are simply guesses. So that's what you are getting for free - a guess at what the problem is.

Free isn't always cheapest

The other consideration is if FREE means that you end up with dead fish, or shelling out for inappropriate treatments - it might be FREE - but it has still cost you money!

Professional fish disease diagnosis and treatment will usually SAVE you money if you take account of replacement costs and wasted treatment costs. So FREE is not always CHEAPEST.
