Hi everyone
Have any of you read the complete book of the marine aquarium by
Hargreaves, Vincent (Interpet Publising) ? if so, does it come recommended.

By the way, i always ignore the "complete" part in titles. No book is
complete.

Cheers

Gary

I just recieved that book for a present 2 weeks back. I have only read upto
the 4th chapter, What it covers in those areas is tank setups and mostly all
of the hardware add-ons for a tank, it's very good reading, but after you
get through it you can see he is trying to explain everything in such a way
that he doesn't **** off some of the hard core people that do things one
way, because of this his descriptions on many things are vague. I would say
it's fairly Newbe orientated but could so far be better. There is stuff all
examples, only his facts.

The book certanly isn't complete but it full of great stuff.

I don't have much else to go by for good reading material, but I sure do
like it in all.
