The health of our captive ornamental marine fishes is dependent upon the environment and nutrition provided. A healthy, low or zero stressed fish will heal itself from an injury, can fend off bacterial infections, and resist other diseases through immunity and protein-charged barriers (e.g., a healthy mucous coating).

In this last group are such things as: water quality, tank mates, tank size, water parameters, etc. There has been a lot written about their environment, but little can be found about captive ornamental fish nutrition. Part of this lack of information comes from the fact that aquaculture studies have been scarce on this subject, until just the last 14 years.
