A must-have for the beginning goldfish enthusiast.

This is a great book for the beginning goldfish keeper. It gives detailed instructions for setting up your tank, tells what the best way to feed your goldfish is and provides general care tips for how to keep your goldfish healthy and happy. The pictures are full color and depict a wide range of excellent specimens of varying breeds. There is a large section devoted to the breeding of you goldfishes that provides a good base of information. (Although you might want to consult several sources before you start any breeding program to gain a better grasp of the details of the process.) And since it is put out by The Goldfish Society of America it gives you pictures and detailed descriptions of the standards that are used to judge the more exotic breeds of goldfish. The disease section is a little brief and should probably be expanded, but overall it is a well-rounded introduction to the goldfish as a pet. Again it is a must-have for the beginning goldfish keeper.
