On this page you will find the update history of the site, listed with the latest additions at the top.
7 February, 1999
We've added the first bit of information to the library section. Most of the books that are listed are books that we recommend and that we have in our personal library. And yes, you can order them online from Amazon.com which I'm sure you'll figure out makes us a very small amount of money. So if you like this page and want to order one of these books online, please follow the link from our page. We're not going to get rich from this, but will maybe be able to offset a portion of the price we pay to host this site on Geocities. Besides, we've always had really good service with Amazon.
We'll add more to this list of books soon - especially if anybody out there wants to send us their list of recommended books (we're always looking for more books to add to our collection).

Wow - talk about being just a little remiss in keeping the page up to date, huh?
Anyway, we didn't have net access for about the last six months and have been back on since about the first of the year. If you sent us any e-mail between late July and the end of December, assume we didn't recieve it. Sorry. We weren't ignoring all of you on purpose - sometimes life hust happens.
But now that we're back online, we'll keep the page fairly current. You may notice a few minor changes right away. A number of people that have linked to our site have linked directly to our paludarium page and, while this is certainly acceptable, the way these browsers work meant that only the paludarium frame appeared and any surfers using that link missed out on the contents frame and possibly the rest of the site. Easy fix though, and it keeps all those links here active.
BTW, thanks to all of you who have given us a link from your sites. We'll try to get a recriprocal link to everybody up real fast.
Later,
Amy & Phillip

Hey - Thanks for stopping by.
We would be remiss if we didn't mention right off the bat that this place is UNDER CONSTRUCTION (or is that just to be assumed with every web page these days?)
Anyway, bear with us as we add to the pages. If you've visited our old site, a lot of this will look familiar, some of it will be new. We're trying real hard to expand the site in and around our hectic schedules so don't be surprised if it doesn't change on a regular schedule.
Among the new things we have planned are an all new links section (yeah we know, the last one never really got off the ground). So if you'd like us to link to your site, send us a note with the URL (we have a number of old requests, but if you've asked in the past, you might want to go ahead and ask again to make sure we didn't forget you). We're also planning on writing our own on-line 'how to' book that explains a lot of stuff that goes into setting up a healthy aquarium, a guest image gallery to feature tanks of others, a humor section, and a lot more ...
Right now, a number of the links to the left still link to 'dead' or blank pages, but we'll keep updating as our schedule permits. However, since we won't be updating on a set schedule, we're also setting up a mailing list to notify by e-mail anybody that wants to know when and what has beed updated. Just check the link to the left for more information.
One thing that we are looking for from our visitors is some help in filling out our sections on fish, plants and amphibians. What we want to do with these pages is to present information from the point of view of a hobbyist. Anybody can go and look in a book and post information about kuhli loaches or scan an image from a book. What we want to do here is to have photos from hobbyist tanks accompanying descriptions that are written by normal, everyday people. So, if you want to send us an image of your dwarf gourami along with a bit of information about the species (you know, the typical stuff like water temp, whether its agressive, a community fish, etc., but more importantly stuff that you've observed watching the fish that you might not find in the average aquarium book) we'll try to include it in the appropriate place here. And if you see something that is here that you'd like to add to, that's great too. Anyway, all contributions are welcome and we will include as much as we can. We can't offer money, but in return we will offer a link to your e-mail address and/or you web page at the end of each piece of text you contribute. Questions? Drop us an e-mail for more information.
Again, thanks for stopping by, we sure hope you enjoy your visit -
Amy & Phillip
