Marc Morrone's Ask the Fish Keeper

Made famous on The Martha Stewart Show on television and Sirius radio, Marc Morrone is front and center to answer his viewers’ (and his readers’) many questions about their favorite pets. In Ask the Fish Keeper, Marc’s quirky, entertaining personality shines on every page as he spews out his wisdom, know-how, and hilarious anecdotes to answer dozens of questions.

Divided into ten chapters, Marc tackles a range of topics from flakes, flies, and feeder fish in the “Food” chapter and cycling, changing water, and testing in the “Water” chapter to complete chapters dedicated to fish health, care, filters, and fish behavior. For fish keepers interested in either marine or freshwater fishes, there are specific chapters dedicated to both, covering topics tank setup, equipment, parasite, and favorite species.

While Marc is often laugh-out-loud funny in all of the chapters, it is his genuine admiration of all kinds of fishes and animals in general that makes this book a unique resource for all pet lovers. Fill with real first-hand information and reliable tips, readers will be laughing and learning in equal measure! The book is beautifully designed and illustrated with color photographs as well as original artwork by Jason O’Malley.
