I have been trying to find good books about freshwater fish/plants but have not been able to find anything at the local bookstores that has all I want. I did find "Aquarium Fishes of the World" and that has some info not not a lot of information about newer fish and how to handle them. If anyone has a good recommendations, I would love to hear from them. I currently have a 75 gallon tank with farowella twig catfish (3), Furcata rainbow (3 1 male, 2 female) School of Harlequin Rasbora, a few silver hatchets and miscellaneous tetras. Thanks again

Dr. Axlerod's atlas or mini atlas are good reference books for freshwater fish. Also the Aquarium Atlas series, I think there are 5 or more books, are good too.

For plants, Peter Hiscock's Encyclopedia of Aquarium Plants is great.
