Book Reviews of Corals: A Quick Reference Guide (Oceanographic Series)
Book Review: A Must Have Reference Guide
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great quick reference guide for corals commonly found in the reef trade. I won't kid you, you will not find as much information here as you would in larger volumes such as The Reef Aquarium (TRA) Vol. 1 & 2. This is a handy book for getting quick stats such as lighting requirements, foods accepted, tank placement charts, aggressiveness, hardiness, and more. I bring the book with me every time I go coral shopping. With a book like this at your side you will always have all the facts BEFORE you make your coral purchase!
