5.0 out of 5 stars Cult of Koi is the best I have seen!, May 15, 2000

This review is from: Cult of the Koi (Hardcover)
The book is an excellent reference for beginners and experts as well. It gives a great overview of the history of Japanese, Domestic and German Koi. It gives an excellent<!> review of the different types of Koi that have help me a great deal in identification.

My local Dianichi and Sankaye Koi dealer also says that their consensus is that Cult of the Koi is by far the best they have ever seen.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not much details, outdated, April 24, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Cult of the Koi (Hardcover)
I don't think this is the best book on Koi. Although it covers all the standard topics (Koi identification, pond building, filtration system, diseasees, etc.), it does not give enough details in each topic. The "Tretra Encyclopedia Book of Koi" is by far the best . I know, it is not available for sale any more, but try to find it in a library. It is well worth the effort and you can save money as well.
