|A great starter book on breeding freshwater fish.,
I have read many books on caring for fish (fresh and saltwater) and have both fresh (55 gal) and marine (90 gal)setups. As someone interested in learning about breeding fish I feel this book was a good place to start especially at such a cheap price.
It gives simple to understand (as the name suggests) info on the different types of breeding habits of freshwater fish, gives how-to guides about getting the fish in the mood
, care for their eggs/fry and gives detailed info on certain popular species of fish breeding.
If you are looking for starter info on breeding fish it’s a good place to start IMHO. If you have been breeding fish successfully already this book will probably be of little help. This book is more than just a pamphlet as another reviewer suggests.
