A history of the tropical fish industry in Florida with observations and comments by Ross Socolof.Amazing stories by one of the great pioneers of the aquarium trade.This book is a part autobiography and part history of the tropical fish industry in the U.S. from after World War II through 1980.You are about to have a -conversation- with a man who is a lucky, inquisitive, and rare individual. He has spent his lifetime doing exactly what he loves doing. He has been fortunate in his business endeavors, his adventures, his studies, his credits, and his life because he has loved it all. It was never work.Sometime ago a young fish fancier said to me: You're so lucky - you get to talk to Ross all of the time.I've been proud and happy to be included, and am pleased that Ross has finally put some of his life on record. This book is truly a reminiscence, not always in chronological order, but a lot about the man, the industry pioneers, the business, and his joy, working with and caring for tropical fish.Read on, learn, and enjoy! - Loise Socolof.Paperback, 255 pages.
