Customer Review
Superlative guide for beginners. Worth every cent.
As someone that has always admired marine aquariums I recently found myself in the market for one.Before starting, I read this guide and it quickly enabled me to get up to speed and intelligently plan my new aquarium.I have read a few books on marine aquariums and while a few of them have the sheer volume of info, this one cuts through all of the fluff to deliver the best info for beginners to understand what is involved in setting up an aquarium and quickly help them avoid the most costly and common mistakes that beginners make.It might sound simple but topics like where not to put your aquarium (while obvious for pros, is invaluable for us newbies).Aquarium book authors tend to be a bit verbose on this subject to impress the reader with their knowledge, rather than to help beginners avoid mistakes. This book is the exception to this rule.If you buy this book it will help you improve your probability of success...

Well presented, comprehensive information.
Having had freshwater aquaria in the past (at one time I had eight), I've been toying with the idea of going marine. Anyone trying to make this same decision will be well served with this book. It can give a beginner the confidence needed to get started, plus later serve as a handy reference for all phases of care and maintenance.It's obvious that years of personal, hands-on experience with saltwater aquaria is behind this book. The info is first-rate. And great photos! Just looking at them will make you want to go out and buy a tank--but wait--you need to get all the facts by reading this book first. It contains far more than the low price would indicate.

A Wealth of Information!
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...

Product Description
NEW BEST SELLER
Author and official aquarium nut, David Chipperfield has had nearly a decade of experience in the fine art of owning, planning and caring for marine aquariums but he was once in your position too - filled with the enthusiasm of wanting to own a salt water aquarium but not having the experience that leads to owning the vibrant, colorful aquarium that all aquarists dream about.
This is book is written so that, even if you're a beginner, you can easily create a crystal clear, lively salt water aquarium filled with healthy fish and healthy coral.
When we asked Chipperfield to summarise what aquarium owners would find in the book, he told us:
"Sadly many marine aquarium owners give up on their dream after their fish become ill and die, their fish do not 'get along' together, one or more fish make a meal out of the rest of their tank or they make one of the other fatal (for the fish) mistakes that most aquarium owners fall prey to when they first buy their tank.
"It took me many years of experience and pain to learn the secrets that would ultimately lead me to being able to create incredible aquariums with remarkable ease.
"This book is what I wish I could have had when I was starting out, someone to give me the secrets of a successful aquarium and tell me exactly what I needed to know about fish, with clear step by step instructions on setting up my aquarium, keeping them healthy, choosing the right equipment, backup plans, what to watch out for when buying fish and much, much more...
David Chipperfield estimates that not understanding just a few of the tips in this book cost him over $3,210 and hundreds of wasted hours and fish in trial and error early on in his marine hobby.
This book contains information that comes from years and years of hands on experience - including step-by-step answers to those tricky questions that you just can't seem to find the answer for.
Some of the sections you can find in this book are:
• Rules for a Successful Aquarium
• Planning and Choosing Parts
• Choosing Technology and Equipment
• Filters and Filtration Methods
• Setting Up Your Aquarium
• Choosing Your Fish
• Saltwater Fish Compatibility
• Maintaining Your Aquarium
• Aquarium Troubleshooting
Beware of some of the books out there that promise you a stunning aquarium with little or no work. One of the mistakes of an aquarium novice is assuming that there will be little or no work involved. Without proper planning and use of the correct techniques you could literally lose all of your fish again and again. Aquariums involve consistent work and preparation but with knowledge of the right aquarium time saving techniques you can minimize your overall maintenance time.
Just a few of the techniques covered in the book are:
• How the size of your tank affects maintenance, chemistry and the health of your fish
• Should you choose a glass or acrylic aquarium?
• What you have to do to wood before you put it in your tank to ensure that it doesn’t affect your fish
• Techniques to encourage plant growth in your aquarium
• What to avoid buying from your aquarium store that will leave you feeling shortchanged and unhappy
• The technique to use more than one heater that will help stop your fish from dying
• Why incandescent lights are insufficient for use in your aquarium
• How choosing the right substrate can bring out colours in your aquarium to make it even more beautiful
• Where to definitely NOT put your aquarium
• Safety tips you must know about handling your aquarium
• A clear guide to always choosing healthy fish
If you are looking for just one book with the tips you need to get your marine aquarium hobby stepped up to the next level then this could be the book for you.
