  • Comprehensive Guide
This book provides an extensive guide to corals and most other invertebrates that might be used in a salt water aquarium. It gives a nice account of the main characteristics of each in a condensed format with a lot of nice, clear pictures. Basic care and compatibility issues are discussed. Unfortunately, there are so many variations in the appearance, particularly of corals, that a book of this size is of limited help in the identification of specimens. However, it is still useful for home aquariums. ... show more

This book has proven invaluable as we are purchasing stuff for our tank. It is great to know background to help make decisions that are best for both your tank and for the animal that you are looking at.

  • Excellent Quick Guide
This is an excellent quick guide to help you making your invertebrates "wish list", and also very helpful to carry it when going shopping for new inverts. Each page provides a picture and useful information about the portrayed invertebrate, compatibility with fishes and other inverts, etc. It could be a little better if the author gave a score from 1 to 5 like the author from "A PocketExpert Guide to Marine Fishes" did. Also, a better clarification on light levels would be important. Just saying "bright", "medium", etc isn't enough for a beginner like myself. ... show more

  • Excellent Quick Reference
This book is excellent for what it is - a quick reference guide. Do not expect to see the detail you would find in larger volumes focusing on specific genera or species of animals. However, to help identify see basic care and compatibility information and aid in setup and purchase decisions, this book is worth every penny. Many authors divide volumes confusing and annoying customers as they will classify anemones, corals, mushroom corals, and invertebrates differently. This covers the lot. Don't expect to see everything in endless detail. However, you won't be upset if buying this as a first reference for selection or as a complement to an existing and extensive collection. ... show more
