5 out of 5 stars Review: Encyclopedia of Aquarium Plants   December 27, 2007
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I found this book very informative when I was setting up my 75 gallon Discus aquarium. Thanks to the information, pictures and various expamples it gave, I gained the knowledge to pick the way I wanted to set up my aquarium and what plants would be the better choices for the lower ph, higher temp. water used for Discus. Very good read.


1 out of 5 stars What a waste of money   July 23, 2007

Don't purchase this book unless you are a botanist. It is very difficult to understand and the layout impossible to follow.


3 out of 5 stars Good book but some questions remain unanswer.   June 29, 2007
 3 out of 5 found this review helpful

This is a beautiful book with many high quality pictures of the plants. Overall it has well organized content but some informations are just not specific enough. For example, how much CO2 to dose to your tank is appropriate? How much Gh is a water soft or hard? How much time it normally takes to "cycle" a tank? No introduction on the pros and cons of different CO2 reactors types. Some answers may not be trivial but at least general guide line should be provided to be any useful.

5 out of 5 stars A great plant book   January 28, 2007
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

This is an excellent book, simple as that. It has information on not only plants, but many other important aspects of aquarium care. It has extensive information on how plants work in the natural habitat, in the aquarium, and how to care for them.

Everything is simple and concise and explained well, the images are great and show exactly what they should. How to trim different plants, how to plant them, how to get rid of algae and making a balance of nutrients in the aquarium and so on. Just examples of what it covers, if you have an aquarium and have plants and just want to know what to do to keep your plants healthy, just get this book.
