This book presents 500 tips on how to become a better salt water aquarium hobbist. It covers everything you can think of and plus some more. Being a begginer in the hobby, I found it very useful, as it give straight-forward tips on laymen's language. On regular books on salt water aquariums tips are usually mixed within the text, if they present any tip at all, plus language is sometimes hard to follow for people that has no background on the subject. I believe that even seasoned hobbists will find useful information by reading this book. The chapters are the following: * Better Setups * Better Aquarium Furnishings * Better Heating and Lightning * Better Water Management * Better Fish Buying * Better Invertebrates * Better Compatibility * Better Feeding * Better Ongoing Care * Better Breeding * Better Healthcare In my opinion the highlight is the section on invertebrates, which provided lots of information that I was unaware of. The chapter on breeding is very interesting as well, as this topic was presented in a very practical way. As for the presentation, this book is edited in hard cover, with superior papel and fully ilustrated with terrific pictures. In summary, a recommended book for aquarists from all levels.
