Product Description
Ecological Aquaculture offers a design framework for successful ecological aquaculture in all but the most extreme climates and regions. The systems described are not wasteful or polluting; they are self-sustaining. While primarily aimed at people with a freshwater resource who want to make use of it in a sustainable way, Ecological Aquaculture is also a work of groundbreaking ideas and practices for those interested in environmental management and aquatic ecosystem enhancement and repair. It serves as a reference work for academic research and a practical guide for planning authorities and conservation programs. The book includes two AIDGAP freshwater identification guides. |

lacking in pictures, but overall a good book by Samantha Divine (shoshone, id USA)  4 Stars
June 22, 2008
I would have liked more pictures,as I think it helps to pull concepts together, especially if you are trying to figure out your own system. Most other books are more expensive, and this one did give good detailed descriptions.
