The book is fun to read and to look at the pictures, and it has ended up in our bathroom. I would like to see more comments about fish personalities (behavior and compatibility) from people who have had these various fish. The author writes well, but his perspective seems detached. Saltwater fish owners, however, are especially attached to their fish (partly because we paid so darn much for them), and we can bore each other with stori4es about how they act. That's more of what I was hoping for in this book. Good book overall, and what I want doesn't seem to exist (except on the saltwater forums online.)
For $5 you can’t go wrong came fast like less then a week the books had little wear and tear on the cover and back but for $5 that’s deal there’s a pet shop next to my house wanted 31.99 for and got the same one for $5

All of the "Marine" books are terrific. Whether its Marine Fishes, Marine Invertibrates, Marine Reefs, etc., these books are great. Excellent price and worth the money. My son loves aquariums and this was for him. he carries these to the pet stores, Fosters and Smiths and compares the two. He has learned so much from, these books that the sales people just stare at him. He is 11 and has been offered MANY jobs when he turns 16, thats how much he has learned from these.
