AQUALOG: All About Shrimps, Crayfishes, and Crabs in the ... (ISBN 3936027684)

Good purchase:
This book is a much better version of the first Aqualog special by the same author. Infact, it has much more pages of excellent information regarding scientific information on crustaceans, on how to keep them in captivity and breeding. I cannot refrain from mentioning the excellent photos and their exact corresponing scientific names referring to them. Some of the photos are taken by the reknowned Chris Lukhaup. I love this book which unfortunately was published exactly when Sulawesi shrimp were still in their initial stages of spreading in the hobby worldwide. Still there are some photos of these shrimp included in the last part of this book. For sure, 'All About Shrimps, Crayfishes, and Crabs in the fresh- and brackish-water aquarium and paludarium' by Uwe Werner is a must have for all shrimp and other crustacean unthusiast especially for those who are into keeping them in aquaria and paludaria. Unfortunately, this Aqualog book together with the first one issued before are the only serious attempts in English language so far to my knowledge. There are so many books in german language which unfortunately are not yet translated for us hobbyists. Thumbs up for this book!!!!
