And this is a big book, very thick, about 1,000 photographs inside with microscopic observations. Look at the many photographs of all the different diseases. We have also the goldfish, the koi carp, all in detail. And we have a specific chapter on like on the discus diseases that can occur. The South American cichlids, the scalari about dwarf cichlids, about the African cichlids, about catfish. All different diseases in detail. So this might help you to understand that fish species can have certain diseases. This is a big chapter on this subject because it helps you to identify the problems that occur on your fish. We also have a chapter on microscopic observations. What can we do? How do we examine the fish? An important chapter is on the kind of symptoms we see or signs we see on the fish. The ulcers, the bleeding wounds, the patches, and what it could be as a disease. So it's all explained with a lot of photographs. In the beginning, the very important part is a questionnaire. You have to ask yourself questions. What are the causes and what can we do as a quarantine procedure? So there's a questionnaire inside and we explain how it comes that fish can become sick. This is all explained in this big book with 1,000 color photographs. And the content explains you. An important chapter is of course also about the medications with advice how to use the medications. Medications are split up for use in bacterial infections, parasitic infections, and some advice how can you combine medications or to avoid certain companies which are not good?
