Practical Aquarium Handbook

Well-maintained aquariums give us an insight into the fascinating underwater world. Author Ulrich Schliewen provides expert information on the natural habitats and interesting behavior of fish in the GU Aquarium Practical Handbook. Everything important about water and technology is explained in an easy-to-understand way. Topics such as decoration, planting, furnishing, care, socialization of fish, reproduction and breeding are covered in detail. The comprehensive portrait section contains over 400 species of fish, amphibians and invertebrates and offers an excellent overview as well as a wide range of possible combinations for the dream aquarium. Nanos - species-appropriate mini aquariums and A home for Nemo - an introduction to marine aquariums are also covered. Practice-oriented tips, checklists, tables, tests and the Quickfinder make the book an indispensable standard work for every aquarist.
