None that I know of.

The easiest way I know is to order direct from the publishers (having done so before, I can say that the books would reach you fairly quickly).

DATZ = Deutsche Akvarium und Terrarium Zeitung [spelling subject to only having two years of not very interested study of the German language]. Translation is pretty straight forward to German Aquarium and Terrarium Magazine.

In this instance, the book in question is the "All the L-numbers". L-numbers were introduced by DATZ quite a few years back.

Roughly speaking, I guess in North America, TFH is what DATZ is in Europe.

Thanks

I had a feeling that the A stood for aquirium and the T stood for Tetrasomething. It was the D and the Z that me confused, but now that I know it is German its makes more sense.

Is it in English, and if so, is it worth getting?

Cheers

I always thought it stood for "Die Aquarien- und Terrarien-Zeitschrift".
