The Everything Tropical Fish Book

Rating:
Summary: Excellent for the overwhelmed beginner!
Review: Many books on this topic are as confusing as the vast range of fish supplies in the pet stores. As a first-time betta owner, I thought my fish was just aging till a slightly more knowledgeable friend told me that "gray" means "illness," and not "old age." The chapter on fish health was very helpful and now it looks like we may get the full life-span out of him. Information in this excellent book is easy to find, well-organized, straightforward, and is just enough to bring you to a level of competency without information-overload. If you're just starting out with an aquarium or trying to decide if you want one, this book is all you need! Save the more intensive books for when you're sure this is a hobby you really want to invest in for the long term.

Summary: Very Enjoyable!
Review: This book was well organized and provided lots of information on the Goldfish, Koi, freshwater and saltwater aquariums.

This is a good book for beginners and experts alike. I have read it cover to cover and will refer back to if often as I become more interested in my new hobby.

A bit lite on acutal fish information, but an excellent source on all basic information about setting up different types of aquariums
