REVIEWS
“I am delighted with the tack taken in which you provide scientific information for hobbyists to make sound aquarium management decisions. I applaud the approach to educate non-scientists about their subjects; too often the scientific laypersons are greatly underestimated. I was particularly pleased with the book’s total avoidance of ‘gadgets’ that are mostly quite useless. The book’s ecosystem approach and balance of the system is the only reasonable direction long term.”
—ROBERT G. WETZEL, Professor of Biology and author of Limnology, the foremost reference book on aquatic ecology
