AQUALOG Mini - My Corydoras

These fish have survived the dinosaurs. When 60 million years ago these giant lizards roamed the world, the Polypterus commonly named Bichirs were also around. They breathe through lungs and their young have external gills, as you will find only in newts and salamanders. They are fascinating witnesses of past times and still very much alive, vital and adapted to modern life. 
The Bichirs have always attracted the attention of biologists. Despite this fact, it is the first time in the history of literature that all known species are presented in one book. In the framework of a five-year research for this Aqualog Reference book, all type of material has been studied, which showed that several species were still new to science. To be able to picture one species for the first time, a collecting expedition was organized. 
Allow yourself to be captivated by the more than 180 fantastic large format photos. In addition, extensive information is provided on the maintenance and breeding of bichirs and reedfishes in the aquarium.

AQUALOG: Polypterus - Bichirs (English and German Edition)

The true mailed catfishes, with around 150 described species and at least as many not yet classified by science, form a highly complex group. All things considered, research into the systematic of these fishes, which are apparently all very closely related to one another, is very much in its infancy. 
Now, it is true that in the aquarium hobby it is not the scientific name of a species, but the live fish, that is the center of interest. However, it is sometimes necessary to be able to indicate what species we are talking about, and hence C-numbers were brought into being in the magazine DATZ (=Die Aquarien und Terrarienzeitschrift), for identifying Corydoradinae that have been imported but not yet identified. 
The first C-numbers appeared in the DATZ of 12/1993. Since then a number of species have either been described as new species or identified as existing described species. The majority of C-numbers, however, remain just as difficult to classify as in the past. By the time the AQUALOG All Corydoras (ISBN 3931702138) was published in 1996, there was already C-numbers 1 to 46. In the meantime we have reached C132 and there is no end in sight. But we nevertheless feel it makes sense to publish this complete list of all the C-numbers to date, compiled in line with the most recent knowledge. With over 270 photos, a must for the Corydoras lovers.

A garden pond only becomes a feast for the eyes with loads of plants in and around the water. 
Lots of people aren't satisfied with a garden pond that livens up the landscape from spring to fall with fresh green shades alone. It should display plenty of bright splashes of color as well. This is mainly provided by the flowers of a wide variety of marsh and aquatic plants. 
Species ideally suited for cultivation in and around the garden pond include numerous representatives of the iris and primula families, and of course the waterlilies. All provide a fantastic floral display. The skilful combination of members of these families can be used to ensure that from March to September there are always flowers in and around the pond, with the intervening greenery providing an attractive color contrast. 
For the past 20 years Axel Gutjahr has been heavily involved with garden ponds, with a particular interest in plants. In this book he not only presents these plants through beautiful color photos and text, but also provides valuable hints on their sitting and cultivation requirements, and thus the basis for the successful setup of a perfect garden pond. 
An explosion of colors with over 110 high quality photos, 64 pages, hardcover.
