aquarium books

Hola amigos just wondering if anybody can suggest some good books for salt water aquarium begginers. I would like to learn more about the care and set up of salt water reef tanks. your info will be appreciated. thanks a bunch

Yes I was looking into salt water but did not have the money or time. But the book I read that I felt was very good was The Simple Guide to Marine Aquariums by Jeffrey kurtz. I read the whole book and loved it. It's well put together and all the info you need to start out.

Thanks I will have to check that book out, I have been wanting to start a salt tank for a while but dont know much about it. thanks again

Well I will let you know what I think I just bought it on amazon. thanks again sf311

You will learn some interesting stuff from it. Hope you like it as much as I did.

All the books I have are FW and are also older than I am Still good books though if you ignore the equipment stuff

"The New Marine Aquarium" by Michael S. Paletta is really good!
You can get it here:

I have a saltwater guide to fish keeping and a saltwater fish/invert species book(tells you how hardy, how rare, what goes with what, what's reef safe, etc...).
I can ship them to you for $10+shipping

thanks for the offer im gonna read this book I just orderd and if I plan on statring a salt tanki will hit you up for them. thanks again

i am looking for the 2 above pictured books, marine fishes and marine inverts. i like looking at the pictures of fish and inverts in them they are also great for determining what can be kept with what and what might and might not get along.
