Customer Reviews
Informative introduction to approx 60 species - Rated Yes this is a book for beginners- but an extremely useful one. However you do tend to go I WANT THAT FISH! and then notice that it grows to 18"/ 45cm (So that cute looking yellow horned cowfish will be out then!). You get a species to a page. A nice picture of the fish. A globe to show you the rough distribution. There's a description of the fish and it's eventual size. There's also a panel of fishkeeping data which tells you: The number per aquarium The community it fits in Its swimming zone Food Compatibility (whether it eats other tankmates) Availability (including whether it's tank bred or live caught) Captive breeding possibilities. Frankly as the data is well laid out and succinctly informative I feel that this is a very good planning guide which could prevent costly mistakes in the brightly coloured world of marine fishkeeping. A must for informaton on selecting marine fish. - Rated This book made an interesting and informative read. I do belive that it is more for the begginer, rathur than the experianced hobbiest. It had colourful pictures and quick, easy to read and remember tips and facts for each of the species mentioned. The only fault I could find was the lack of information for when you wish to progres beond the 'begginer' stage. However, It is a must for all new to keeping marine fish a it sticks to important information with no jargon!
