Re: [APD] Books

["S. Hieber" <shieber at yahoo_com>]

And Diana Walstad's _Ecology of the Planted Aquarium_. Whether you  opt for the same style gardening as Diana or another, the book is loaded with info on what matters in aquatic gardening. YOu should be able to get it through most bookstores or google searches. If not, write back and we'll give some web sites.

Both of Kasselman's books are good reads.  One is more a reference book
