This crucial period in the life of a new aquarium is often beset with problems that fishkeepers find alarming. Throughout this part of the book, the emphasis is on providing the answers to common questions and offering practical advice to keep the system working smoothly. When plants and fish are added, there are profiles giving detailed descriptions of 50 suitable plants and 100 recommended species of fish.
