註釋
Often dismissed as an ugly curiosity by casual browsers in their local aquarium shop, the bristlenose catfish is actually not only a hard worker in the aquarium, tirelessly clearing algae with a seemingly endless appetite, but is also an endearing and attractive fish whose charms have won over many aquarists. For those who are newcomers to keeping catfish, this book explains how to keep your fish happy and healthy, detailing suitable ways of setting up your tank, choosing and buying your fish, feeding them and spawning. Those who are already converted to the delights of bristlenoses will be fascinated by more indepth information, including discussions of their habitat and behaviour in the wild, the problems of differentiating species, and some of the remarkable biological adaptations of the catfish. The bristlenose is suitable for nearly all tropical fish communities and, once you have owned bristlenoses, an aquarium will never again look complete without a pair. Book jacket.
