There are many reasons why saltwater aquarium hobbyists collect their own specimens. But whatever thgeir reasons for collecting their own marine fishes, those hobbyists - even if they are already experienced divers - can benifit from guidance in some very important areas, and this book provides that guidance. Concentrating on important aspects of fish collecting that are of special interest and value to first-time collectors, author Rodney Jonklaas here provides a patheway to success based on his own long experience as a dedicated hobbyist and professional collector. Chapter after chapter gives detailed information of great practical value on a wide range of collecting-related topics, from choice of collecting locations to the use of fish tranquilizers and how to bait fish traps. Good reading about an increasingly important aspect of the hobby.
