Coral Propagation Book.....whose got it?

[Modo]

Yeah, I went to his website through a link on one of the post that came up on the search. He does offer updates via e-mail (i think) and you can pay for hard copies.

I didn't even think to check Premium Aquatics for the book. Too, bad because I just bought some more b-ionic and DTs this morning. But, I think shipping on a book is like $2.

Thanks!

Great book! But for those picture hogs, this is not a good book for them. I got it at my LFS.

Have any of you read this book? I have not heard or seen much about it before.

Book of Coral Propagation, Volume 1: Reef Gardening for Aquarists
by Anthony Rosario Calfo

It looks like a great book and some good reading. But, I don't want to drop $40 bucks on something not so hot. If you have read it please let me know!

Here is a link to it on Amazon.com.

Thanks,
Kurt

OOPS!!

Sorry guys, the search function was taking awhile. It just came up with a thread with some good comments.

My bad.

I have the book and like it a lot go to PremiumAquatics.com they have it for 29.95
I had the pleasure of having Anthony over my house after the MASM conference last Sat he has some really good ideas and I would say his book is well worth the money

Btw it is not just about corals it has system set-ups ideas and a whole lot more
Also with the purchase he offers updates for it for I think a year or 2
I don’t have it in front of me to know exactly

You can order the book directly from Anthony at www.readingtrees.com .It is $36.00 including shiping and if you ask, Anthony will autograph it for you.

It's a great book and well worth the money.

best damn book written on the subject. The new bible on coral propagation. Don't get it if you are looking for a coffee table book, but only if you want to learn. However, he writes in a very laid back, casual style that is easy to understand. Get this book. I read the first 100 pages in one day. I'm surprised that more people haven't been talking about it on the board.

One of the best and I do recommend it. It is worth every $ you pay for it.

 

[pitbull]

Great book and the author has even e-mailed me personally and offered help with my new prop tank!

I have been reading it and I like it alot. It is written so that you can stomach the info and a little funny too. No pictures to speak of but very good info. I would recommend it.
