Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
This books starts off at the right place, by emphasising the need for good maintenance practices, which in turn lead to healthy fish. The second section details in alphabetical order a list of possible symptoms (eg spots, hollow belly) whilst the final section lists, again in alphabetical order, possible treatments. The book is well organised and very easy to use. The only reason I cannot give it five stars is the paucity of photographs on symptoms.
