Fish Vet Group provides a full consultancy for owners of pet and exhibition fish.
Numerically ‘companion’ fish are the most popular pet in the UK with up to 2000 marine and freshwater species to choose from, all with their own particular environmental and nutritional demands.
To maintain a healthy and trouble-free stock of fish owners need to be aware of the appropriate care for their particular species – a particular problem with popular ‘community’ tanks with mixed species where the needs of one species may not match those of another.
Fish Vet Group is unique in providing a veterinary service which is 100% dedicated to the care, health and welfare of fish and aquatic species, we can offer a variety of services supporting owners of pet fish. This may be simple advice on treating a parasitic infestation or full veterinary support.
Good environmental conditions and water quality are vital for healthy fish and the Environmental Department of Fish Vet Group can carry out a wide range of water quality monitoring to ensure appropriate conditions and investigate problems.
Public aquaria are very popular visitor attractions, they also provide a vital educational service in demonstrating the fragile nature of the aquatic environment and our role in protecting that environment. Public aquaria present their own set of challenges when it comes to ensuring the health and welfare of their fish stocks and Fish Vet Group can provide a wide variety service to meet these challenges. Our services include:
