Reader ReviewsA reasonably good book for a beginner wanting to start an aquarium with a bit more thought than the usual community tank.The part on biotopes is not only interesting but is of great help fro the aquarist who would like to set up a tank/ecosystem which is as close to the real thing as possible. However, the 159 pages did leave the me "dissatisfied", i really could have done with a more detailed book. . If you want to keep/keep a planted aquuarium like I do then, you do need other books like Amano,s Nature Aquarium World series, and Barry James' Illustrated Guide.... for more details and ideas.
