A great guide

This book is great to explore the diversity of the lake Malawi cichlids. Very helpful to have around when doing a trip to the fish store. Concise informations on the requirements and diet of all Malawi cichlids. The only thing laking is male/female pictures of all fishes. There is usually only the picture of the male of each species. A great book!

very specific

Though there isn't a lot of general cichlid keeping information, this book is invaluable to the enthusiast who wants species particular information for the keeping of these beautiful fish. Great pictures and information from a man who's done on the site research. A perfect addition to any cichlid library representing the latest science.

Fantastic guide to Tanganikans!

Exhaustive guide to the cichlids of lake Tanganika. Includes hundreds of pictures including many color variations. Information on many of these fish can't be found anywhere else. Focuses mainly on the individual fish, but does give some info on the technicalities of keeping them as well. Highly recommended!
