This review is from: Tropical Fish: Setting Up and Taking Care of Aquariums Made Easy (Complete Pet Owner's Manual) (Paperback)
One of the beginning books i've read. Lots of tips for such a small book. Surprisingly good photos. Generally covers everything for start up, buy this book when buying a 20 gallon start up kit and you should be off to a good start.

This review is from: Tropical Fish (Barron's Complete Pet Owner's Manuals) (Paperback)
I very impressed with this book, when I received it in the post I was bit disappointed of the size, it looked quite small, but packed with useful information I was looking for, it's not very thorough, it touches alot of subjects though, from setting up a tank to common fish species, plants, diseases, etc. This is the perfect book for beginners when you need useful information and facts. Great book, nice photos too.
