Looking to do some reading .and good reef books out there worth buying
The Reef Aquarium Vol 3 by Sprung and Delbeek. Actually all 3 volumes are worth the investment.
Hey Randy what's was the book Tony was talking about at the swap that it's the SPS bible?

Corals of the World by J.E. N. Veron---this is a large and expensive 3 volume set that is the definitive taxonomic guide to corals. BUT, it contains absolutely no husbandry information and is not intended as an aquarium manual. If you want to learn about the natural habitat of various species, how they are classified biologically, and see great photos of large colonies in the wild as well as skeletal close-ups this is the book for you. If you are looking for info on how to keep stuff alive in captivity it is not.
My all time favorite is the Conscientious Marine Aquarist, a little pricey but absolutely worth it for beginners. This is seconded only by Reef Secrets.
How do you guys feel about the CMA?
