Notes
The legal status of non-DVM fish health specialists needs to be resolved. DVM's legally may do fish health work but won't, due to lack of knowledge and pay. Fish health specialists cannot do fish health work because it is not legal for them to do so. Legal waivers for fish health specialists to practice and aid fish farmers are needed.
