    • A good how to book
If you are new to aquariums, this is a great place to start. I would certainly buy this book again if I wanted to learn about aquariums from the beginning. It certainly would supply a foundation of understanding about aquariums.

    • Book reads as the title does.
This is a great book for the novice fish keeper. It touches on most aspects needed to give the beginner a good start. Some chapters are not really easy to read I imagine it is those chapters that do not concern myself. Wish some chapters were more in depth while others were more limited. All in all, not bad reading and take notes that concern you. ... show more

    • We are dummies
Excellent reference source for the beginner or seasoned pro. We are somewhere in the middle. This reference will keep you from making costly mistakes with over population..tank initial set-up..filtration..and water testing recommendations. Our go-to ref book.

Haven’t even read it yet but it came ripped like it was used and that wasn’t what I purchased.

    • Excellent Reference Book
Use the table of contents to pick and choose what you want to study. Everything is in there - probably more than most people will need. But it's a good to have it all if and when you need to learn all about fish keeping.

    • I was an aquarium IDIOT
I've always wanted a large aquarium but never had the means to invest. My sweetheart surprised me with a 75 gallon tank on an enclosed stand with all the fixings. I knew this ran about 2K by the time he was done with the full set up and fish. The fish were dropping like flies and I immediately started looking for help. I found this book and it didn't take long for me to see that I was an idiot fish keeper that needed educating. This book was soooooo helpful in learning to recognize diseases, the functions of water changes, testing testing testing. My well water couldn't be treated enough to make the water right. I now have to buy 15 gallons of distilled water every 2 weeks to keep the fishies healthy, as well as many other things like filter changing schedules and so on. It's a lot of work, time, and money for the upkeep. I suggest you learn from my mistakes and get the book FIRST if you too are like me and want an aquarium. ... show more
