New Book

[Dave 54]

At last my book on Fish Pathology has come in from the US and was delivered today at about 10:30 am .
I've been waiting for this one for weeks now .
It was written in 1975 and is a first edition with lots of interesting chapters on Parasites, Pathogens, Protozoan Parasites, virus's and much much more

Pretty nice. It is just a year younger than I am! It would be interesting to see how much knowledge has or has not changed since then.

Man this book is truelly a mine of good information with pleny of Microscopic slides photo's etc , though 1975 much of the information therein is still as useful now as back then .
One thing I though confusing though as it went against a long held 40 year set of beliefs about goldfish, it turns out they are the same as other Cyprinid species in that they dont use a stomach to process their food.
Using instead thir intestine to process their food all controled by the skeletal muscular system which connects to it throughout its length .
