Book Description: Keeping marine invertebrates successfully poses two major challenges: which animals to choose and how to set up a tank for them. This book provides practical answers to both challenges. It opens with an introduction to the biology of marine invertebrates and then examines how to meet their needs in captivity. It closes with a colourful survey of suitable aquarium subjects, from sponges and sea anemones to octopi and crabs. About the Author: Martyn Haywood has pursued a lifelong interest in fishkeeping. Having kept and bred sticklebacks as a child, he went on to keep freshwater tropical fishes and then embarked on setting up marine tanks, which have been a major interest for 17 years. As livestock manager for a major London aquatic business and now as proprietor of his own aquatic centre in Hampshire, Martyn is ideally placed to advise on all the practical aspects of selecting and keeping marine invertebrates. He has written numerous articles on the subject for magazines in the UK and overseas, and in Parts Two and Three of this book combines his skills as author and marine expert to encourage both aspiring and committed aquarists to establish their own invertebrate tanks.
