Outstanding explanation on water chemistry

Book covers details on water cycle, oxygen, carbon dioxide, chlorine, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, nitrogen cycle, pH, hardness & salinity, temperature, various filtrations, maintenance, and plants. It covers briefly on all other aspects of aquarium and fish, but the author does it well in a clear, concise manner. Lots of pictures and graphs. The book is packed with wealth of information in just 80 pages!
