Book Description
Excerpt from Popular History of the Aquarium of Marine and Fresh-Water Animals and Plants IN the Introductory Chapter of this little Work will be found some general observations on the nature and uses of the Aquarium. These are accompanied by a few practical hints for the guidance of those who wish to possess such receptacles. The greater part of the volume, however, is occupied by descriptive accounts of such animals as have been, or may be, observed in Aquaria to greatest advantage. They are arranged in the order of their respective classes; and while the greatest attention has been given to observa tions of their functions and habits, their physical structure and the places they occupy in the system of Nature have not been forgotten.
