Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 7

Positive aspects of the product (pros):	Good referance for beginners
Cons:	not enough detailed info

I read this book and found it to be OK. If you have a lot of fresh water experience you will find it lacking in detail. If you are totally new to the hobby, this would help you understand what you need to know to get started.

------------------------------
If you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.
