Everything anyone wants to know about fish, aquarium fish, aquarium
plants and aquarium setup and maintenance are what John Dawes
presents in this excellent encyclopedia ... The fish photography

encyclopedias.-- (08/01/2002)
Profusely illustrated, fact-filled reference book. [Dawes] offers
81 pages of general information and thousands of detailed summaries
-- by species -- on food, temperature, care and breeding, with
excellent photographs.-- (12/15/2001)
There are rare moments in reference publishing when the quality of
illustrations and the quality of textual information converge in
such a manner that it is hard to imagine one without the other.
This is such a work, replete as it is with more than 500 full-color
photographs and illustrations that provide, at a glance, a better
understanding of what is being presented in the text ... This work
is highly recommended for scope, detail, and illustrations.--
