5.0 out of 5 stars A great reference for fish care, June 21, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: A Fishkeeper's Guide to the Healthy Aquarium (Hardcover)

Dr. Carrington has created a short reference book to help aquarists along.

He covers setting up the tank and equipment, aquatic plants, breeding, avoiding disease, identification of disease, and treatment of diseases.

Don't be put off by the small size of this book, it's the best reference I've seen for fish diseases.

4.0 out of 5 stars A quick reference for aquatic plants' lovers, June 29, 2001

This review is from: A Fishkeeper's Guide to the Healthy Aquarium (Hardcover)

If you are like me that loves a lushly planted aquarium, this book is helpful as a quick reference guide. It describes the most common species, the origin and their basic care (temperatura, ideal water parameters, etc.) However, note that the info is limited on each species but, as a quick fix source is good enough.
