Info on Fish books

Hi

I've been wanting an updated version fish keeping encyclopedia, so was checking up on a few. Anyone know if these are good and if so, which one is better?

I would go with the first one.
It is a pretty decent book.

I agree with Dino, the best one (or at least my favorite one) is the first one.

Thnx.

Are you'll saying this book is better than many others or just between these 2?

I've sometimes called the first one the fish bible for fish species. It is a little out of date, but it is still very good and not large.

That's another great book, but I would go with the one by Dick Mills first since it also shows how to set-up a FW tank, a SW tank and I think a brackish tank. The 500 FW Aquarium Fish one also only shows FW and brackish fish, not SW like the one by Dick Mills does.
