Knowledge Base

[biggs]

So a few of us have discussed putting together a knowledge base. This would consist of Books and Vids. The thought was we'd pool all the info in a thread so the members knew what info was out there and could draw on it if needed so let's see what we can compile. I don't have a lot and some are really old but here's a list of what I do have:

• South American Earth Eaters - Thomas Weidner
• Aquarium Encyclopedia of Tropical Freshwater Fish - J.D. van Ramshorst
• Encyclopedia of Aquarium Plants - Peter Hiscock
• Handbook of Fish Disease - Dieter Untergasser
• Natural Reef Aquariums - John Tullock
• Tropical Freshwater Fish - David Alderton
• Simon and Shusters complete guide to Freshwater and Marine Aquarium fishes - 1976
• Salt Water Aquariums - Barbara and John Walters 1967
• Exotic Aquarium Fishes 1966
• Aquarium Plants Manual - Scheurmann
• Angelfish - Barrons
• Tropical fish - Braemer and Scheurmann
• Discus Fish - Giovanetti
• My First Aquarium - Kaspar Horst
• How to breed Tropical Fish
• Enjoy your Angelfish

Who's next???

Crap that's a $200 collection right there, and I didn't know that they had ever translated the 3rd one, wonder if they'll ever get around to doing the 4th and 5th ones. Not to mention the Salty stuff and the cichlid one and........

All I have is the index - which is a great very informative on it's own.

MOPS has
Aquarium Atlas IV - Hans A. Baensch, Dr. Rudiger Riehl
The Cichlid Atlas Volume 1 - Hans A. Baensch, Dr. Rudiger Riehl
Catfish Atlas Volume 1 - Mergus (the book cover looks very similar to) Hans A. Baensch, Dr. Rudiger Riehl

JLaquatics has 1, 2 and 3 (marine set) for $87 - Hans A. Baensch, Dr. Rudiger Riehl

I thought that JLaquatics had 1, 2 and 3 (freshwater set) for Hans A. Baensch, Dr. Rudiger Riehl, but I guess not.
