info sites on fish n corals

[Brooke]

The links Dick gave are very good, but they don't have a lot of description about the corals, etc. Nothing beats reference books. Natural Reef Aquariums and Conscientious marine Aquarist ..everyone should read these. Scott Michaels fish books are great. Even an older marine atlas like Baensch is a great resource. The Reef Aquarium volume 1 and 2 are also excellent books. We have 8 reefing books and there are still some new ones that I'd like to get. You've spent a lot of $$$ so far. Why not spend a little more! If you use this link to shop at amazon.com, The reef tank will earn gift certificates that I will give away as contest prizes!

Nycreef,
Even better, while you are waiting for your tank to settle, get a copy of Scott Michaels' Reef Fishes book and Eric Bornemann's Aquarium Corals. These are authoritative and will always be at your elbow for reference.
Here are some sites that are helpful:
