Synopsis
This book shows aquarium hobbyists how to create an underwater plant paradise. Besides adding beauty to any tank, properly selected and cultivated plants are functional. They provide shelters and hiding places for many of the fish, while also removing some substances from the water that are toxic to fish. The author suggests specific plants for freshwater aquariums, provides step by step guidelines for aquarium design and planting, and offers advice on plant care.

Customer Reviews

Packed with information
At this price and size, the book cannot be beaten for the range of plants covered and the amount of detail given. Indeed, for plant information, it is not far behind Peter Hiscock's much larger (and more expensive) "Encyclopaedia of Aquarium Plants".

plants for your aquarium
I think this is a very good book with plenty of information on how to keep a healthy planted aquarium with info on most of the common species of plants you find in the pet stores. But its more of a pocket book with it only being about 5mm.
