Customer Reviews

Nice section on Fish Identification, less on Technicals

I like this book, but I bought it because it had information on fish rarely found in most aquarium books, mainly the loach families and fairly good coverage on catfish families. I completely agree with Scott Hieber about the Maturation portion of this book though. It does not make any sense. Other than that I had few problems with this book.

Dont make mistakes with your first aquarium, buy this book!

Gina Sandford presents an increadiable amount of information about fish keeping, in this very easy to read and understand, book. It clear explains every aspect of setting up a tank and keeping fish. It will answer all your questions, including the ones you havent thought of yet! The best part of the book is the profiles of the 7 common groups of fish. Each provides a tank conditions & care guide which will prevent you from placing the wrong fish in the wrong settings.
