Easy reference

Very handy with great photos. Perfect for identifying potential problems before they get out of hand. It also helps to diagnose the problem so you don't waste your time and money on the wrong treatment as I've done in the past. Now that I have this reference, it's easy to see exactly what the problem is and treat it effectively.

Best Little Book on Koi

This little book is the best reference I've found for the amateur koi keeper. Specifically, it not only talks about Koi health, the diseases they get, and the medications that may help; but it provides you with excellent photos of these little critters that can decimate your pond. With this book and a beginer's microscope I have been able to diagnose many problems and save my fish. I just bought four more copies to have ready for newcomers to our Koi Club this spring when we will once again start receiving calls from distraught pond keepers.

review of manual of Koi health

The book was well thought out as far as content. The author spoke to the reader taking into account that the reader might be a novice koi keeper

A Great Koi Reference

This is a fantastic book for anyone needing tips on keeping the environment their koi live in heathy and free of disease. This book is very easy to understand and has many photos to help you better understand what you are reading. Everything is well photographed with excellent instruction on identifying, prevention and the treatment of diseases. When the photography was not good enough, then wonderful and highly detailed illustrations were used. The text is straight forward with little jargon so that it is easy to understand for even a non-fish person like me. This is a great book for anyone interested in going to the next level with their pond.
