A comprehensive, illustrated and authoritative guide.

Keeping koi is one of the pinnacles of the fishkeeper's art. These magnificent and often expensive fish have inspired a fanatical following, with collectors prepared to devote a lot of time and resources to creating a flourishing koi pond.

One of the top priorities for koi keepers is coping with fish that become ill. Left untreated, many fish suffer and die.

Manual of Koi Health offers practical advice about disease diagnosis, prevention and treatment. The book is written by two experienced koi professionals and internationally recognized experts. It includes a complete listing of all common koi diseases and how to treat them.

Written for non-technical readers, it explains treatments for:

 * Parasites
 * Bacterial, fungal and viral infections
 * Ulcers, lesions and wounds
 * Stress conditions.

Preventative measures are also explained. Poor water quality is the most prevalent cause of disease in koi. Water testing and the best way to maintain healthy water conditions are covered in detail.

The book is profusely illustrated with color photographs, and step-by-step instructions provide easy-to-follow directions for a wide range of procedures such as how to handle, anaesthetize and take samples from koi.

Manual of Koi Health is a vital reference for every koi keeper.

LEARN TO BUILD A BACKYARD WILDLIFE POND IN ONE WEEK FOR LESS THAN $300 Observe wildlife you otherwise wouldn't see: watch frogs and dragonflies in your own backyard. Provide the one essential habitat element that benefits all wildlife: water. In this easy to follow do-it-yourself booklet, you will learn how the author built a backyard wildlife pond during a one-week vacation, for less than $300, as part of a plan to have a certified backyard wildlife habitat. Color photos illustrate each step of the pond building instructions, including: choosing a pond location designing a pond that benefits the most wildlife digging and leveling the pond installing padding to protect the liner buying and installing the liner filling the pond with soil, rocks, and water and adding rocks around the edges. Although many sources exist about building traditional ponds, there is little information about building a low-maintenance, natural pond specifically intended to be beneficial to wildlife (with soil in the bottom and no pump). This book will show you how to easily create this type of pond and welcome frogs, dragonflies, tadpoles, snails, bathing birds, and other creatures where you can observe them in your own yard. A wildlife pond is cheaper to build and easier to maintain than other types of backyard ponds: It doesn't need an expensive pump. Plants are grown directly in soil at the bottom of the pond, rather than in pots that need to be removed each Winter and repotted each Spring. Instead of goldfish provided by humans, it is stocked by Nature with local wildlife. Once it achieves a balanced state that mimics natural ponds, it needs very little input from humans. In addition to the step-by-step pond building instructions, sections are included on: types of pond plants, including edible arrowhead natural pond maintenance how to keep the pond unfrozen in Winter how to patch a hole in the liner wildlife seen at the pond. Join the author on her adventure and discover the joys of having your own backyard wildlife pond!
