THE MANUAL
The Aquality Manual a.k.a. Water Quality and Water Treatment in Zoos and Aquariums will consist of peer-reviewed articles presented at the 1st and 2nd Aquality Symposia on core water quality and water treatment subjects. Once the review process is complete, a hard-bound version of the Manual will be published.
The estimated release date of the hard-bound Manual is 2021. However, as each article from the symposium completes the peer review process, it will be made available on this page as a downloadable pre-publication DRAFT electronic document. We encourage you to check back periodically for new additions.
