Description


The third of four volumes completes the first catalogue that presents all cichlids from South and Central America. Only the Discus and Angels are left out and presented in Volume IV. On 144 pages and 650 fantastic color photos you find the co llective genera Aequidens, Cichlasoma and their relatives Acaronia, Caquetaia, Petenia and Herotilapia. Changes of scientific names up to 1998 are considered. All AQUALOG -reference books introduce each fish (incl. breeding forms etc.)with at least one color photo and a short description. The ingenious code number system labels every known or newly discovered fish with an individual code number. This number re mains, despite any scientific renaming. Moreover, it enables you to communicate internationally about any fish without the danger of confusion regarding local names! Your AQUALOG -reference book always stays up-to-date! All newly discovered or bred species are regularly published as supplements or so-called "stickups" in our AQUALOGnews. These stickers can be attached to the empty pages at the end of your book.

Customer reviews for 'South American Cichlids III (AQUALOG-Reference Books)'

good to have but needs updating

As I got more serious into keeping fish I figured it would be good to have some books as the internet still doesn't have everything. This picture book has definitely helped me in my finding and identifying of fish from South and Central America.

Only down side is I don't think the company is active anymore as it would be nice to get some more and newer stickers for the back.

This book could def use some updating as fish have been reorganized. Prime example is the Vieja sp, some are now Paratheraps.

Beautiful Fish-keeping Books

All of the Aqualog books are excellent value, although they are not particularly cheap. They are full to the brim with first class colour photographs and to reproduce these in a book is an expensive process. Whether they are about many of the different beautiful fishes now coming into the aquarist trade or in this case specifically the Cichlid species of fishes many of which are among the most beautiful fishes. They are first class for identifying that fish that you have had for some time, but have not been able to put a name to.

This is a really beautiful book with some stunning photographs and for anyone interested in Cichlids in particular and fish-keeping in general it is a book to be treasured.
