This exotic disease training manual has been prepared for students of Australian tertiary institutions studying veterinary science, aquatic health, fish biology and aquaculture. It is envisaged that it will be used by students and staff involved in teaching some aspects of diseases of aquatic animals and focuses on reportable diseases of aquatic animals that are exotic to Australia. The main aim of the manual is to provide information that is likely to be most relevant to veterinarians and aquatic health specialists. Epidemiological information and disease control methods are the main focus of the manual.
