Customer Reviews

Very technical genetic overview - somewhat lacking in details

Absolutely highest quality photo illustrations: super high glossy prints. The chapters dealing with breeding has highly technical language regarding Mendelian genetic theory - might be a little advanced for anyone without a college degree in biology. A little lacking in details regarding the how-tos: How to set up a breeding environment, for example. I would have preferred more in-depth info than what was given. Nevertheless, this book is worth getting, just be prepared to supplement it with other books.

Very thorough and very detail

This book is perfect for serious goldfish hobyist or those who wants to go into goldfish breeding business. It's very detail and complete. It may be too advance for beginners.

i have baby goldfish everywhere now

thanks to this book, i was able to pick out a male black moor and cross breed it with a simular goldfish shown on the cover of the book. the babies are cute. red/white with black tails.
