Editorial review: Written by an expert on marine biology, this title is must reading for the marine aquarium hobbyist. Keeping ocean-dwelling fish and other marine life forms thriving in the synthetic environment of an aquarium requires special knowledge and care, especially in regard to water quality. The author discusses the properties of natural seawater, then gives details on how to create and maintain high-quality synthetic seawater. He describes biochemical cycles and fluctuating conditions that are normal in a flourishing marine aquarium, instructs on adding needed chemical components, and advises on water analysis test kits, instrumentation, and record keeping. Includes illustrations plus informative tables and charts.

5 stars. Water chemistry for saltwater aquariums
Excellent book dealing with water quality in reef and fish saltwater aquariums. A must for anyone who is seious about the hobby.
|
4 stars. good basic information
A lot of good information for the new fish keeper. Save yourself some frustration and expense by starting off with some good clear information.
|
1 stars. Oddly outdated
Strange for a book on this topic published in 2005 not to mention live-rock or the chemistry that goes on in the various in vogue substrate filtration systems.
|
5 stars. Salt Water Info
Very informative on beginning a new salt water tank. Information on what equiptment needed to provide the type of tank I wanted. Different habitat need different water and light conditions. Very helpful.
|
2 stars. Simple book for beginners
Good book for beginners maybe. Generally covers all important topics but on very entry level. I didn't find here anything what couldn't be found in public resources on the web.
