Wetpixel member Angel Fitor (Tide) is proud to announce the release of his new book, Tanganyika, Africa’s Inland Sea. Fitor calls Tanganyika, the longest African lake, “probably the most amazing and fascinating freshwater environment in the world. It is also an almost completely unseen underwater realm where evolution has produced one of the most striking fish assemblages on Earth.”

At 192 pages, this hardcover coffee table book holds nearly 300 photographs of fighting cichlids, pygmy shell-dwelling fishes, and other colorful and distinct species, and can be shipped around the world. Visit Tanganyika, Africa’s Inland Sea for sample pages and more information…
