It is bizarre what some of these <"books are reputedly worth">. I own a copy of Mile Hellweg's <"Culturing Live Foods: A Step by Step Guide for Culturing One's Own Food for the Home Aquarium" >which I purchased for the sterling equivalent of $35.I thought I would look up some books I purchased in my youth
Crikey @fredi just looked them up, those books are a ridiculous price. Fortunately for me I’m not the biggest catfish fan otherwise I’d bankrupt myself trying to buy them 😁
I collect a few books (not aquaria related), I started many years ago when I developed an interest in the Battle of Britain, I have around 200😂Hi all,
It is bizarre what some of these <"books are reputedly worth">. I own a copy of Mile Hellweg's <"Culturing Live Foods: A Step by Step Guide for Culturing One's Own Food for the Home Aquarium" >which I purchased for the sterling equivalent of $35.

Love this book! This is the one that really made me want to keep a planted tank, with heating cables no less!Here's my latest addition.

The books a bit dated but I still enjoy reading it.
I think once you start buying these books it soon becomes addictive, and based on the feedback of the last couple of posts I've just ordered The Natural Aquarium at a bargin price of £3.24.
Got that ,it is a good bookNow inspired to to share this one from TFH, smells a bit musty.

I have managed to find these on eBay. Took a while but worth it I think, but can’t find Vol 5 in English.
Plus the Plants and Aquascape books bought new. View attachment 214601
I haven’t been able to find vol 5 or 6 in English either. As you said don’t think they did a version.@Ben Cox you inspired me to try and complete the 1-5 vol. collection. Number 5 arrived this morning. Found it on eBay. It was sold as the English version, but it isn't, it's German. Not sure it exists, so I don't mind. Vol. 1 and the 1-5 photo index are new since they were fairly cheap. The rest are secondhand and also very reasonable, even Vol. 4 which is usually stupidly expensive. There is a vol. 6, but again, I don't think an English version was ever printed.
