Pedro Ramon Escobal Publisher: Dimension Engineering Press Date Published: Second Edition May 2000 Language: English Format: Paperback 272 Pages | Devices and How They Function Although a bit technical at times, Escobal's book is designed to literally teach aquarists the often mysterious ways our aquatic devices really work. A very good reference that helps aquarists truly begin to understand the chemistry or physics behind the diverse array of filters, protein skimmers, reactors and so forth, that are part of this hobby. The book is written like a textbook and it includes exercises, examples, charts and graphics. As a result, the reader can absorb the contents as his/her own pace and safely tinker with his/her own devices at home. Although at times too technical, the book is a great resource and should be cherished by all who love aquatic life and those that strive to keep it alive and well in their aquariums. |
