3.0 out of 5 stars Lots of Selective Breeding Information with Photos, May 12, 1999

This review is from: The Proper Care of Goldfish (Tfh Series) (Hardcover)

Don't let the number of pages fool you. This book has small pages, big type, and lots of photos, but not a lot of information. It does go into selective breeding pretty deeply, though, and has plenty of information about outdoor ponds. The rest is very general. Very little about water chemistry. Not bad for the price. The book I got is not the one pictured with the goldfish & black background, but the 1996 edition with blue-green aquatic plant background.

This book isnt for the first time goldfish owner, but is good for more advanced owners. It has good pictures and has lots of info on how to start a goldfish pond and also has info on some aquatic plants. I would say it is a pretty useful book to have on goldfish.
