Avid Researcher... new to planted tanks
 
Review Date: September 4, 2005
Reviewer: T. Macdonald, TEXAS
This is a terrifice resource for beginners. I have been reading everything and anything I can get my hands to set up my first planted aquarium. When I found this book I'd been reading and searching for a couple of months. This book reflects much of the information I had been able to gather over those months of research.

When starting out on a new path, it is always nice to have a simple guide to show the way. This book has the basics and explanations for the hows and whys. It is easy to read and understand, gives excellend explanations and encourages the complete novice to attempt this hobby.

Armed with this information, I will be setting up my tank shortly. I recommend this book to anyone who is considering setting up a planted tank.
Great research tool!

This easy to read and understand book should be in every aquarist's library. It has easy to understand Eco-system descriptions, just as the name of the book implies. An excellent chapter that gives the names, descriptions and best use, of a wide variety of aquarium plants. We'll look forward to the authors' next book!

The authors have done an excellant job of describing water chemistry and the reasons various filtration systems work. pH, KH, hardness, nitrites, and nitrates are all covered. Testing and correction of water deficiencies are described very well. The explanation of Kingdoms of platnts, animals, etc. is very enlightening. The different catagories of plants are also covered as well as their use in an aquarium. Fish that are compatible with a planted aquarium are also suggested.
Excellent book
