Love the informative magazine and app. My only wish that the app would allow screen rotation since my iPad is docked to Apple Keyboard in landscape position.

Tons of stuff every month on a variety of topics. I find myself reading nearly the whole magazine every month. Online aquarium forums are all over the map as far as advice is concerned and it really is nice to have professional aquarist sorting through all the conflicting opinions.

I own every digital copy of FishKeeping magazine. The app has a great search engine that allows you to search almost 5 years of magazines making this the equivalent to an encyclopedia. Good fish books are hard to find! The photography is amazing. You can use your iPad to blow up the photos to show amazing detail. Nothing is out of focus. The editor is also amazing in his knowledge of all aspects of FishKeeping and is well connected in the community to find the experts to write on everything required to cover a well balanced magazine covering enough topics to keep all fish-keepers no matter how well read they are, coming back to read this publication. Yes this an expensive magazine, but I would pay more to maintain the superb quality and diversity it offers. Customer Service is good. The recent buyout of the magazine by PocketMags was a very positive move with the issues since being some of the best they ave ever produced. Thank you for bringing Planted Tanks to the list of topics. It was way over due.
