My favorite coral book is Eric Borneman's 'Aquarium Corals'. Best up to date info out there. I also really like Fossa & Nilsens 'The Modern Coral Reef Aquarium' Vol 1-4. Very good books to help ID all those little critters in our tanks as well as corals and anemones. And lastly but not least is Veron's 'Corals of The World' series to help ID hard corals.

Just about anything of Martin Moe's is pretty good reading, and fairly sound. The only problem with it is that you've got to be careful to get the books that have been re-edited to be a little more current. While they were pretty cutting edge in the mid-90's, some of the information is pretty out of date.
I also enjoy Tropical Fish Hobbyist, as their information is usually very sound and timely. Freshwater and Marine Aquarium (FAMA) is also pretty good in this respect, but the photography isn't quite as nice, and it seems as if there's often more devoted to freshwater than salt/reef issues. |

Joyce Wilkerson's Clownfishes is an excelent read as almost every marine tank set-up has at least one clown in it at some point. It is a very informative book for beginners and a "bible" for breeders. Travis

: Marine Fishes:A Pocket Expert Guide 500+ Essential to Know Aquarium Species Scott W. Michael
This is a great book to have when your at the LFS and spot that cool looking fish and want to learn a little bit about it before you bring it home and find out it grows to 6' and eats house cats for breakfast. It lists fish by category Tangs, Wrasses ect.. It has color pictures of each fish with common names and scientific name and it tells you if they are Reef safe, Max length ect..
