nice

I was interested in starting a cichid tank and this book was very helpful. fill with good tips and ideas. I would have like more photos. I decided after reading the book that cichids where too hard for be to handle due to the size of tank needed and a small amount of fish one can have. I have a discus tank instead

Very worth it for the price

This is a good book for learning about Tanganyikans...It has alot of useful information for such a small book. For someone unfamiliar with the habits of Shell-Dwellers this is very informative. It gives you recommended tank sizes for most of the popular Tangs (Neolamps, Frontosa, Calvus, Lamps) as well as a limited compatability between certain species.There is a section about which plants can survive in an African tank... this is hard info to find.The only think that I found lacking was a complete section of photos, descriptions, specs and stats of each species. This would've added alot to the book and made it into a true reference guide.In any case it is a very fun book to look at from time to time. There's always stuff in there to learn about.
