Summary

Here are two brand new photo-filled volumes in a fine and growing series for aquarium hobbyists. Tankmaster volumes show -- rather than merely tell -- exactly how to set up and maintain different kinds of aquarium. Every page is filled with step-by-step, instructive full-color photographs and diagrams that guide aquarium hobbyists through a wide variety of projects. Detailed picture captions and labels complement the step-by-step illustrations and fully explain them. More than 200 vivid full-color photos in every volume.

There are many varieties of goldfish, carp, and other coldwater species available to aquarium hobbyists. This book shows and describes many of them and offers advice on compatibility with other fish, feeding, disease prevention, and general care.
