Tropical Aquaculture Laboratory

Roy Yanong

Professor and Extension Veterinarian

Roy P.E. Yanong joined the UF Tropical Aquaculture Laboratory (TAL) in 1996. Currently Professor and Extension Veterinarian, Roy provides extension, research, and educational programs in fish health management and aquatic animal health, including on-site veterinary assistance and disease diagnostic support for aquaculturists throughout the state. Roy also works closely with state and federal agriculture and natural resources agencies, veterinarians, and other fish health professionals.

Roy’s long-time interest as a tropical fish hobbyist eventually resulted in a career in fish veterinary medicine. After college, Roy worked at Tufts University School of Veterinary Medicine, studying leukemia (what is now known to be a transmissible neoplasia) in soft-shell clams from Boston Harbor. Two years later, he attended the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Veterinary Medicine where he concentrated in aquatic animal medicine and received his V.M.D. in May 1992. After graduation from veterinary school, he was hired by 5-D Tropical, Inc., a large ornamental fish farm in Plant City, Florida, where he was quickly immersed into the industry. He worked as staff veterinarian there for four and a half years, immediately prior to joining UF.

Roy’s extension and research programs are applied and industry-driven and concentrated primarily in ornamental and food fish species. Focus areas include baseline health parameters, health management, disease prevention and diagnostics, disease characterization, chemotherapeutics and biologics, and biosecurity. In collaboration with other faculty and staff at UF/IFAS, Roy has been involved with aquatic invertebrate, amphibian, and reptile species health and disease work.

Roy and his colleagues at the TAL, UF/IFAS Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences Program/SFRC, and the UF College of Veterinary Medicine work collaboratively to promote the advancement of aquatic animal medicine and fish health management through courses, internships, externships, extension and scientific publications, continuing education sessions, and other venues.

Over the years, Roy has participated in numerous local, state, and national aquaculture and fish health-related committees. He is currently the Chair of the Aquatics Working Group for the American Veterinary Medical Association’s (AVMA’s) Panel on Euthanasia; a former member and Chair of the AVMA’s Aquatic Veterinary Medicine Committee; and a past member of the AVMA’s Animal Agriculture Liaison Committee. He is also a founding member, former President, and Executive Board member of the American Association of Fish Veterinarians, and a member of the American Fisheries Society-Fish Health Section, the U.S. Aquaculture Society, and the World Aquaculture Society.

Roy is host of the podcast Aquariumania, the “fishy” part of the PetLifeRadio network.

In his free time, Roy enjoys music (singing, “basic” piano and guitar), fishing, canoeing, kayaking, scuba diving, cycling, sprint triathlons, boot camp workouts, and science fiction, and supporting the local community arts program Winthrop Arts, Inc.
