It just arrived via Amazon, of course, the newly published 'The Marine Fish Health and Feeding Handbook' from Bob Goemans and Lance Ichinotsubo, plus a foreward from Martin Moe.

At first glance a very useful book, with chapters dealing with the basics of fish aquisition and the proper handling of new specimens, in the spirit of prevntion vs cure followed by chapters on foods, nutrition. plus some recipes to play with. The last third is dedicated to diseases and parasites, which is very informative and well illustrated. Now the beginner will have a true idea of what particular ailments look like and what to undertake to get them under control.

OK, I'm enthusiatic about the book, but would like to hear from others that have purchased it. Critique can be a good thing.
