quite nice, much better than the old catalogue. EVen got foreword by Amano and some pictures of his setups. Probably shops like Petmart will sell, but my guess is at least $25.
are there more plants listed?
or is it just 'facelifted'?

Marcus, u bought the new catalogue from Petmart already?
i think plant coverage is pretty comprehensive in breadth and depth. even got the Toninas, fine red Luwdigias, Eriocaulans, Marimo balls. Some updated nomenclature as well (Eustralis seems no longer valid).
didn't buy it. saw it at someone's place.
I'm not sure, but I did see the the catalogue at Petmart yesterday. The book cover look exactly like the old one. Not sure it an old or new publication cos did not open up and read. Cost arnd $10 so prolly the old one.
no, the new catalogue is at least 3-4 times thicker than the old one. the cover is black toned.
I that case, I think it's quite worth it to get it as I found the old catalogue most helpful.
Marcus, whats the name of this new catalogue? Is it still called " aquarium plant catalogue", I want to buy it.
guess I have to make a trip down to petmart.

in terms of information, i vote dennerle.. not only do u get the normal plant pics database, they oso include explanation of some of their products and the chemistry behind planted tank and plus they have some example setup.... I have the tropica (not too bad, except the pics is in watercolour, the oriental plant book has a comprehensive plant database, but it lack on the info. and of coz the dennerle's plant book.. which i always use to ID plants... but now no longer use it
Saw at Pet Safari selling at $45.----------------
