Positive aspects of the product (pros):
|
Has some basic information on small fish (danios, rasboras, cories)
|
|
Cons:
|
Drastically inaccurate information on anything above 5" regarding size and aquarium care
|
I am VERY glad I didn't use the information provided in this book when I was stocking my first tanks as a child. A 20 gallon for sorubim lima, a pimelodus catfish reaching over 1.5'? A 55 gallon for the 2' fire eel? A 30 gallon for a Oscar? I was horrified at some of the things that came up. It also totally lacks anything other than their bogus species articles. It's like talking to a bad PetSmart Employee. If you're looking at this book, put it back on the shelf.
