Books?

[dizzyenglish]

Hiya Peeps,

I posted this... http/www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=154259 ... last month and they have gone ahead and bought it even though they are unsure of costs to replace parts etc. However, i asked them if they had done their research as to what they could and couldn't fit in it and i got a blank look.

So i have said i will buy them a book to at least try and guide them in the right direction, cos whilst i have a large tropical and also some Goldies for my kids, Marine is somewhat of a unknown to me. But one day i swear it will be crystal and i will have that 6ft tank i seen recently... Let me have a minute whilst i drift off into a foggy dreamscape!

I'm back! Anyway, what i'm waffling about is can anyone recommend a really good book that will do for my friends? They have just about managed to keep a little Octagon tank going with 6 guppies in, so have really no fishy experience.

Thanks! I'm going off dreaming about my tank. It will be mine...

Love
D x

Here is TFF's Marine Book/Website Review Thread. It should help you identify some decent, and recent publications for your friends. A nice gesture on your part too! Read through that thread, but when you come to buy a book, id recomend a recent book.

My favorite two are by far, "The Conscientious Marine Aquarist" by Fenner, or "Aquarium Corals" by Borneman. Fantastic reads into the marine and reef world respectively.
