I've had both saltwater and freshwater aquariums before, but had to give them up when I moved. Now I'm ready to try again and want to go with a nice saltwater (marine) aquarium. I wish I had this information before I did my last marine aquarium; it would have saved a lot of dead fish and frustration. Saltwater can be a real trick, but for me personally I find it the most rewarding. The author goes over the numerous setups you can get, including (and important) where in the house to put it, as well as fish that would be a good choice for you. As I found out the hard way before, not all fish are compatible with each other, and you can't always trust the salesperson at the fish store to know. He also explains the different kinds of tanks, like fish only, fish only with live rock and reef tanks. I always thought reef tanks were only for the professinals, but that is what I may try now after reading this. If you want a book that is a real wealth of information, then get this one BEFORE you go to the fish store to buy anything. It could save you a lot of time an money (and frustration) in the long run. For the small price it costs I would highly recommend it.
