What are you thoughts on this Catfish book?

Post by Sinatra »

G'day

I saw the ad for this book "All L-Numbers: Habitat, Care & Diet" and was thinking of purchasing it.

http://www.ulmer.de//artikel.dll/Mail?M ... tm&Check=N

Is the book informative or is it more of a picture book?

Any thoughts or opinions greatly appreciated. :D

Thanks Sinatra...

Hi!

This book is a must have for any L number fan, it is split into 2 part, one very informative on feeding , breeding and biotop of the Loricariidae, the second part is the full list of L-numbers... it is also very informative with a short summary for each number, origin, size and feeding and also a little note when something is special about that number...

Cheers
Yann

I agree with comments above, also it's in both German and English. An especially fine English translation. ;-)

Despite its importance be aware that this isnt a "book" but a magazine type thing...
