Thanks.
Way too expensive: Completely outrageous.
Must-have turns into no-go...

I will be ordering it. I'm one of those old fashioned types who thinks one should spend at least as much on books as I do on fishes... If anyone wants to turn in a book review I'd be happy to run it. Softback for £52 here.

Pricy thing, but then I think of all the hundreds I wasted on college books that were non-buyback at the school due to 'new edition every year or so!'

Nice book though. Maybe Santa can bring it to me!

Eventually I had to have this book and ordered a used paperback. Cheap and in a good condition.
It's full of info and... fish.
Although a lot of photo's are of dead fish in alcohol it's still a nice book to look and read in on a lazy fridaynight in front of the aquarium.
