DESCRIPTION:
Chasing Puck said Dr Ted is my summer tubbing guru. I started keeping summer tubs after seeing Dr Ted give a presentation on the subject at NJAS a few years ago, and it has become the highlight of my summers. From seeing the fantastic colors and fry from fish, to eagerly waiting the first water lily to flower, summer tubbing will always be a part of my aquatic hobby. This is a great guide suitable for both those just getting started as well as anyone looking to improve on what they're doing. Thanks, Dr Ted!. "Very Informative and Helpful" according to El Pokey. This is about as complete a guide to "summer tubbing" that you are going to find. The author explains all the steps necessary for a successful water garden.I feel much more comfortable taking on this adventure after reading this book.. NovaShopper said Great info but beware that there is a B&W paperback and a seoarate color paperback. Or buy the e-book.. Lots of practical and useful information about deck ponds. Unfortunately, photos were in color when I looked at book on Amazon, but the book is in B&W. After I purchased, Amazon added a color paperback at an outrageous price. Can also get photos electronically with an e-book for additional money. Nevertheless, I am glad that I bought the book.
