Axelrod's Mini-Atlas and Baensch's Aquarium Atlas Vol. 1 are the two most popular and widely sold aquarium books available. Every serious aquarist, beginner or advanced, should have at least one of them. Axelrod's Mini-Atlas has more species and more photos, but only very concise info on each fish. The first 672 pages are an excellent identification source containing more than 1800 excellent photos of fish (~3 per page), each followed by brief care info represented by small symbols. After that comes a 300 page section with all the basic info you need to setup and maintain a freshwater tank...and all this for a very affordable price! Dr. Axelrod is probably the most emminent authority in the fishkeeping hobby.
