| There are lots of books available that cover marine aquariums, fishes, and
corals, but there hasn’t been one dedicated solely to the tridacnid clams since
Daniel Knop’s Giant Clams came out in 1996 – until now. I have recently finished
my book Giant Clams in the Sea and the Aquarium, which will be available in
October, 2006. The book is an 8” x 9” 227-page hardback, printed on high-quality
gloss paper, which includes over 300 photographs, and covers all aspects of
tridacnid biology and aquarium care.
The book's foreword was written by J. Charles Delbeek, co-author of The Reef
Aquarium: Volumes 1-3, and here’s what he had to say about it: “…James Fatherree
has brought together the most up-to-date literature and anecdotal information on
the biology and care of tridacnid clams for the hobbyist available, along with
his stunning photos. Using his distinctive, conversational and light-hearted
writing style, James has written a book for every hobbyist, be they absolute
beginners or seasoned veterans.”
For those that aren't familiar with my other works, I’ve been a monthly writer
and photographer for Tropical Fish Hobbyist magazine for over 7 years now, and
have written numerous articles for Aquarium Fish, Freshwater and Marine
Aquarium, Reefkeeping, Conscientious Aquarist, and Practical Fishkeeping
magazines, too. I am the author of Hard Corals, Soft Corals, Getting Into
Mini-Reef Aquariums, and The Super Simple Guide to Corals, as well, all of which
were published by TFH. But, I've finally given my full attention to the
wonderful clan of giant clams in this one, which has been without a doubt my
greatest undertaking and is certainly my best book to date |
