THE T.F.H BOOK OF MARINE AQUARIUMS (N)

For a seasoned hobbyist or someone interested in the history of the marine aquarium hobby, the book is a valuable historical artifact. It provides a fascinating look at how far the hobby has come and the challenges that early aquarists faced in the 1970s and 80s.

The book's information would be outdated and potentially harmful for a new hobbyist trying to set up a modern marine tank. The methods, equipment, and livestock recommendations are not what is considered best practice today. Using a book from this era to set up a new tank would likely lead to frustration and tank failure.
