The Zebrafish Husbandry Association (ZHA) is a non-profit organisation devoted to promoting and developing zebrafish husbandry
standards through education, collaboration, and publication. ZHAs
membership is comprised of a wide range of people interested in
zebrafish culture; including research and veterinary professionals,
facility managers, technicians, fish culturists, aquaculture engineers,
and representatives from various aquaculture supply and biomedical
companies.
The ZHA was originally created by zebrafish researchers in the
Boston area in 2005 and was called the New England Zebrafish
Husbandry Association (NEZHA). Membership in the NEZHA
began to grow rapidly and included many individuals outside of the
New England area so the group changed its name to ZHA in 2007.
Today it has members from around the world who are dedicated
to developing zebrafish husbandry standards. The associations first
working group project titled The Effect of Stocking Densities on
Reproductive Performance in Laboratory Zebrafish was published
in the journal Zebrafish in 2011. Since then, various working groups
are working on subjects such as larval rearing, reproduction and
spawning, water quality, health management, welfare, and nutrition.
The ZHA provides valuable information on the latest husbandry
methods through its new website (www.zhaonline.og) and from
its quarterly webinar series which includes topics ranging from
disease treatment and prevention to cryopreservation to expansion
of infrastructure. Along with the website, where the latest job
opportunities are posted, the ZHA has a presence on social media
including a discussion forum on LinkedIn, a Facebook page and a
new Twitter handle (@zhaonline) where you can find updates on
the latest ZHA news and upcoming events. The quarterly newsletter Stripes provides information on the ZHA Board meetings,
introduces members to industry vendors, and has a semi-annual
Featured Facility.
Much of the latest research in the field of zebrafish husbandry is
presented at the ZHA annual workshop that is held in conjunction
with Aquaculture America. The zebrafish special session has two
full-days of oral presentations that range in topics from facility design
to zebrafish fertility to the latest nutritional research. The zebrafish
special session has been one of the more highly attended sessions
at the annual conference, with over 100 people attending many of
the lectures in 2014.
The ZHA is an affiliate with the World Aquaculture Society
(WAS) as well as the American Association for Laboratory Animal
Science (AALAS). This year the ZHA will be hosting its inaugural
seminar titled Zebrafish Husbandry and Veterinary Care: Multiple
Perspectives at the AALAS National Meeting in Phoenix, AZ.
ZHA has a presence at many national and international conferences including Aquaculture America, Canadian Association for
Laboratory Animal Science Symposium, International Conference
on Zebrafish Development and Genetics, and the European
Zebrafish Conference.
