The text is apparently largely based on practice within the author's own experience and as such has an authoritative ring.. . . .The book is an excellent assist for any person concerned with the maintenance of marine animals. It would also be useful for anyone maintaining closed freshwater systems. -- F. E. J. Fry, Limnology and Oceanography 16: 1005, 1971
The author is the director of an aquarium. If he had restricted himself to addressing the practitioner involved in running a public aquarium display, young scientists looking for advice on how to use a closed water system, and the advanced fish hobbyist, it would have been easier for the reviewer to praise his book. It is well written. The chapters devoted to practical aspects contain valuable information, obviously gained through many years of successful aquarium operation. -- Otto Kinne, ICES Journal of Marine Science 35: 103, 1973
