camtang Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 I am looking for some text books about aquatic plants- preferably based on cryptocorine, echinodorus, anubias, aponogetons and javas. Any ideas or tittles that you know are good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexyay Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 I do have one that I can possible loan you (I can't quite remember its name, was along the line of "Aquarium Plants" ) but it's a wee bit outdated (and full of yellow highlighter).

camtang Posted June 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 I believe that I have that book already, but thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexyay Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 Unsurprisingly it turns out "Aquarium Plants" is the go-to name for books about Aquatic Plants This one is Aquarium Plants by H. C. D. De Wit and has that lovely "old book" smell. Though I wouldn't be surprised if it's the one you have, thought I'd actually bother to check its name now that you've reminded me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camtang Posted June 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 Ahhh, I do not have the one by De wit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 One I like is The Aquarium Plant Handbook published by Oriental Aquarium Pte Ltd, Singapore. http://www.amazon.com/Aquarium-Plant-Ha ... B000OGSDO0 or free Torrent download here The font used for the index is dreadful and page numbers hard to read as too small and hard to read on top of graphics but the info and pictures are good.
