HANDBOOK
One handbook. Every answer.
Stop guessing from forum threads and conflicting advice. Get one organized, protocol-driven reference that walks you from first symptom to full recovery.
Disease Identification Guide
Visual symptom breakdowns for 30+ common freshwater and ornamental fish diseases — ich, fin rot, dropsy, columnaris, velvet and more — so you know exactly what you're dealing with.
9 Drug Monographs
In-depth profiles of the medications that matter: what each one treats, how it works, contraindications, and how to use it safely and effectively in your tanks.
Dosage Charts & Calculators
No more math anxiety at the tank. Ready-made dosage tables and calculators scaled by tank volume — get the dose right the first time, every time.
Step-by-Step Treatment Protocols
Follow clear, numbered protocols from diagnosis through recovery — including quarantine setup, water changes, dosing schedules and monitoring checkpoints.
Emergency Flowcharts
When fish are dying at 2 AM, you don't have time to read chapters. Decision-tree flowcharts take you from symptom to action in seconds.
Printable Logs & Posters
Water-parameter logs, medication trackers, quarantine checklists and fishroom posters — print them, laminate them, keep them where you work.
Identify. Diagnose. Treat. Prevent.
Four stages, one workflow. The handbook is organized around the way disease actually unfolds in your tank.
Identify
Match what you see — spots, clamped fins, flashing, bloating — against visual symptom guides to narrow the possibilities fast.
Diagnose
Confirm the culprit with diagnostic workflows that separate look-alike diseases and rule out water-quality issues first.
Treat
Execute the exact protocol: which medication, what dose for your tank volume, how often, and for how long — start to finish.
Prevent
Lock in the habits that stop outbreaks before they start: quarantine procedures, parameter logs and early-warning signs.
Built to be used at the tank — not just read
Real reference pages: disease profiles, dosage tables and emergency decision trees designed for quick scanning under pressure.
Illustrative layout — the handbook contains the complete versions of every chart, profile and flowchart shown.
Every monograph maps to a real treatment
The handbook doesn't stop at naming a medication — each drug monograph gives you the exact product, dose per gallon and treatment duration. These are the treatments the protocols reference, stocked in the Fish Vet Supply store.
The handbook's first-line, broad-spectrum monograph. The protocols reach for Fish Mox more than any other treatment for common bacterial infections.
Covered in the anti-protozoal monograph — the go-to protocol option when symptoms point to internal parasites rather than bacteria.
The monograph option the flowcharts route to for columnaris-type presentations — cotton-like patches, saddle lesions and mouth rot.
The second-line monograph the protocols escalate to when a stubborn infection doesn't respond to first-line treatment.
Keeper's tip: most keepers start with the Handbook + Fish Mox 500 combo — the handbook tells you exactly when amoxicillin is the right call, how much to dose for your tank volume, and for how long. Diagnose first, treat second.
For aquarium and ornamental fish use only. The handbook teaches responsible use: correct diagnosis before medication, exact dosing from the charts, and full treatment courses. Always consult a licensed aquatic veterinarian for serious or persistent conditions.
Trusted by thousands of fish keepers worldwide
"I've kept discus for 12 years and this is the first resource that actually tells you what to do instead of what might work. The emergency flowcharts alone saved a whole tank during a columnaris outbreak."
"The dosage charts are worth the price by themselves. I printed the salt therapy table and the quarantine checklist and they live on my fishroom wall now. Zero guesswork."
"As a small-scale breeder I can't afford to lose broodstock to preventable disease. This handbook reads like it was written by someone who's actually stood in front of a sick tank at midnight."

Both. The step-by-step protocols and flowcharts mean a newer keeper can act with confidence, while the drug monographs, dosage tables and diagnostic workflows give breeders and advanced keepers the clinical depth they've been missing.
The handbook focuses on freshwater and ornamental species — including koi, goldfish, bettas, discus, livebearers, tetras and other community fish — with species-sensitivity notes throughout the dosage charts.
Buy once, own it forever. Whenever we publish a revised edition — new diseases, updated protocols, additional printables — you get the new version at no extra cost.
No. The handbook is an educational reference designed to help you identify problems early, act responsibly and communicate clearly. For serious or persistent conditions, always consult a licensed aquatic veterinarian.
The handbook is the knowledge system — it teaches you which treatment fits which diagnosis, at what dose, for how long. The medications its monographs cover (like Fish Mox 500, Fish Zole, Fish Dox and Fish Ceph) are stocked separately in the Fish Vet Supply store, so you can keep a prepared medicine cabinet before you ever need it.
