Does anyone know of a Vet that is in this organization or one that knows about this hobby? I need a veterinarian consult with a vet who knows something about this hobby and marine health. If someone could provde a phone number and location (or several) that would be a great help! I've had poor results where I am with this.

We tried to get into contact with one for several months and have had no luck ourselves. Fish Disease specialists are few and hard to come by.

I know there is a vet in SA somewhere that will treat fish, I know someone who had a goldfish operated on. But I don't know how much of an expert he is. I will try to find out from my friend which vet that was.

I actually don't need a fish doctor for my fish. Richard at CB Pets is one of the best "fish doctors" I know, so if I needed advice for a fish disease I would contact him. I need a marine qualified Vet for some paper work health statements specifically relative to marine life. The MARVET program connection is cool. I would enjoy taking that course. I tried contacting IMAC but didn't get what I needed. Maybe I can work out something with Sea World.
