Oh... but this book has been translated into chinese and is quite popular among the hobbyists in Hong Kong and Taiwan.


Hi Andrew,

sorry, i can't tell you about this. Maybe it is a little curious, but the "Bassleer" is not very popular in Germany. Bassleers DVD "The New Illustrated Guide to fish diseases" are only sold by the shop "Aquarium Münster" and that is, for german circumstances to curios. No chance for a really good distribution.

Regards
Marc

Hm if these especially worm lives under the skin, and it is possible see it without a lens... are there more of them? It is a good idea to find out if this is a egglaying or lifebearing species. Is it possible to take a very closeup picture?

Next to be aware of: If Flubendazol is the correct medication it shall be noticed, that this possibly kill all snails and that can cause new problems.

Thanks Marc, yes, i remembered i could see the white worm by naked eyes.. the worm was about 3mm long.

Hi Marc,
Is there an english revised edition of Untergasser's book too?
Have you read Bassleer's book? How is it?
And what about Noga's "Fish Disease: Diagnosis and Treatment", is it worth any good?...

Hi,
sorry i'am late. :redface:

Have you read Bassleer's book?
Not now. But his book is listed on the first place on my "must have" catalogue.
And what about Noga's "Fish Disease: Diagnosis and Treatment", is it worth any good?...
No idea, i just want to list it also, but 119,99$ whow, i think this must wait a little...

These people are very fast. The answer (partly):
Kosmos Verlag in German language said:
Allerdings gibt es eine
amerikanische Lizenzausgabe des Titels. Der Verlag heißt:
T.F.H. Publications Inc.
Kosmos don't ever publish books in foreign languages. The licence for the english version of the book is owned by T.F.H. Publications Inc. If you visit their site, there is just the old edition available.

2. i already sent an pm to Rolo yesterday and i am waiting for his reply.

Still waiting? ;-) Sorry.
I had no idea, so I talked to Marc about your problem and asked him to answer, because his wife is the desease-freak.
....and I'll bring back her Untergasser-book as soon as possible. ;-)

best regards,
Rolo
