More about the book

This advisory book and color poster (64 photos) gives exact and detailed information on about how to furnish the perfect beginner's tank. We provide the tips you need to avoid the typical mistakes made by most hobbyists who own their first tank. We show you what tank size to choose and the fishes and plants that should live in your first aquarium. Easy to read and understand. This book takes you through the basics on how to setup a WORKING aquarium, then through the equipment needed including aquatic plants, then what fish you can combine or not, then maintenance and finally the basics for breeding fish in your aquarium. The fishes featured in this book are not just identified by their name but also code number. AQUALOG has developed an ingenious code number system which labels every known or newly discovered fish (incl. breeding forms etc.)with an individual code number. This number remains, despite any scientific renaming. Moreover, it enables you to communicate internationally about any fish without the danger of confusion regarding local names!
