Detail:  In this book, Martin brings you inside his home fish room and his daily routine, and details his every thought and plan throughout the successful dotty-back breeding project. Spawning requirements and behaviour, aquarium system structure and maintenance, larval rearing and feeding, food organism culture, fish grow out and much more is described in great detail in this book. It is not a dry technical manual, however, it is a daily journey through failure and success leading to development of a workable technique for rearing marine tropical fish.

Even aquarists with no opportunity to breed fish will find the trials and tribulations of the project fascinating and expand their knowledge of marine fish and the captive marine environment.
