Informative
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book had lots of good information on live bearers. I think it's an excellent source to start out with. If you are looking for very specific information, this may not be the book for you. I was really looking for some Platy specific requirements that don't necessarily include breeding, and other than a short paragraph, there wasn't hardly any information tuned especially for Platys. That being said, It's a great starting place for breeding live bearers. The pictures of Guppies & Mollies were lovely. The fish illness discriptions were well written. But you should not use this as your sole source of information on these types of fish.
Book surpassed my expectations

This book was helpful for me, as I am learning how to breed and care for mollies, guppies, and platys. It was useful in identifying and treating diseases, perfecting my tank, and recognizing the sexes and different types of live bearing fish. The photos are also spectacular
Fantastic

I am an amature, first time fish owner and I found this book to have everything I needed to raise healthy happy guppies, mollies and platys. I would highly recommend it. The author explains everything in easy to understand terms. You'll have no trouble raising your fish to be as healthy and happy as mine.

An Excellent book on Livebearers for the money
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
The author is quite an expert on livebearers and his comments frequently appear in the "[email protected]" bulletin board. The book contains good, current information and expert advice, along with both good drawings and good photos. However, every now and then something is "lost in the translation" - lyretail swords, for example, are referred to as "dragon swords", a name not used here in the US. This is, however, an excellent buy for the money!
