Fish Books?

[ecal468]

Can anyone recommend any good fish keeping books? Particularly to do with breeding/keeping Guppies or Cichlids? I just don't want to buy the most popular on Amazon b/c most of the time that stuff isn't the best. Thanks.

Hardback is best, looks cracking under the tank too. Check out Ebay for second hand Atlas's, Amazon.com too.

Not just the Baensch, but all the atlases that come from that line. One of the atlases is by mergus. I haven't gotten the 4th book, nor any of the catfish ones. I also like axelrod's, bedes, amano's, aqualog, datz(pleco), tepoot's (plants), and a few others. Neo has some really good ones available in his book store.

Ive got Baensch 1-4 and the Photo issue too. I really want the Wels edition even thought its never been translated

Oh forgot about the Aqualog ones they are brilliant.
