4.0 out of 5 stars
A book for those curious about starting a marine aquarium.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The New Saltwater Aquarium Handbook (New Pet Handbooks) (Paperback)
This is an excellent book for those interested in starting a marine aquarium. I had several questions about the hobby, and it managed to answer all of them. A significant portion of the book is dedicated to describing the various families of fish. It gives a good idea on how difficult each specimen is to care for. However, very few of the descriptions had any pictures of the fish. This book would probably not be useful for those who already have a working aquarium.

This review is from: The New Saltwater Aquarium Handbook (New Pet Handbooks) (Paperback)
Good intro. Helpful hints on setting up the aquarium for the first time. Could use more fish pictures and explanation of various types.

Great book, especially for the price!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The New Saltwater Aquarium Handbook (New Pet Handbooks) (Paperback)
My local marine fish dealer recommended this book when I first began questioning him about saltwater aquariums. As a beginner, I felt like it cleared up a lot of questions I had about the hobby and also provided a lot of information I can use down the road (disease, etc.) As a bonus, I was totally glued to the book until I finished it. The pictures, diagrams, and text really flow well together and keep you interested. I have read several other books about the hobby but always refer back to this one.
