Originally, only one volume was planned. You, dear reader, have decided otherwise. The comments received were so numerous and so clearly in favor of a second volume that the authors had to grant the readers' wish. The result is present here. This volume turned out more extensive than the first. With over 900 species of fish and over 170 aquatic plants included in this second volume, that is more than an aquarist could ever keep in his life, but interests are very variable and everyone's preference is not equal. Volume 2 of the Aquarium Atlas purposely does not go further into sophisticated and highly specialized hardware but rather into the breadth of the hobby. This allows us to give you more information on additional fishes and plants.

Baensch Aquarium Atlas: Photo Index 1-5

Microcosm

After the Baensch Aquarium Atlas Volumes 1 and 2, no enhancement seemed possible. However, after laborious work we have again successfully collected over 1,000 color photographs of species not presented in the previous 2 volumes of the Baensch Aquarium Atlas Series. 
This book describes over 900 fish species and 80 aquatic plants. It has been entirely revised and corrected. 
This volume again emphasizes catfishes, killifishes and, naturally, the cichlids - the eternal favorites of most aquarists. But Russian species, hereto almost unknown in Western Europe, the United States, Canada, and the Far East, have been included to a larger degree than previously. 
Now with the first 3 volumes of this series, over 2,500 fish species are described and provide the aquarist with all the information needed to keep those freshwater fish correctly. 
A must for the serious hobbyist or professional alike!

Baensch Aquarium Atlas, Vol. 3 (Third Revised Edition 2004)

Mergus Verlag GmbH.

The Aquarium Atlas Volume 4 presents 700 fish species. All are new to the series. Most are fairly recent imports, which are not covered in any detail in other aquarium books. 
Through collaboration with photographers, importers, and hobbyists, the publisher has collected abundant information on each species. We are certain that the reader will acquire more knowledge from this book than from any other available aquarium book or magazine. 
892 pages, 1000 full color pictures.

This book is written to fill the gap between the simple guides, those small books on special topics, and the big books only a few hobbyists need...and for which fewer have the funds. It offers mega-doses of information, concentrated so that it is informative and interesting. Included in this book are photos of over 600 species of fish and 100 aquatic plants, yet this is not an encyclopedia of fish and plants but a practical guide on the keeping, care, breeding and adaptation of aquarium fish and plants. For both biological and aesthetic reasons, we feel live plants and fish belong together. 992 pages, hardcover.
