The Aquarium Keeping an aquarium, or fish tank, can be a fascinating pastime. Watching healthy fish going about their business in their apparently weightless world is a relaxing experience, and following their day-to-day lives can be more addictive than television. W hen it is done properly, fish keeping also teaches you hands-on practical skills of animal care, an empathy for animals, and a direct awareness of other lands and ecosystems. You can literally bring a piece of the mighty Amazon River into your own living room. Fish are living creatures, and when we decide to setup and keep an aquarium, we must repay their beauty and their fascinating behaviors with care and respect. This book will show you how.

A mixed school of rain- bowfish is a joy to watch.
