Book recommendations

[weereef]

I'm looking for a new book, encyclopedia style, with pictures, descriptions and care recommendations for both fish and corals/inverts. I would prefer one set up by scientific name. Anyone have a book (or more than one) that they really like? Any particular reason why you like that one so much?

Thanks,
Chad

Borneman's Corals and Shimek's Marine Invertebrates. Don't have any books on fishes...

For fish: A Pocketguide to Marine Fishes by Scott W. Michael is a frequently recommended reference. The Marine Invertebrates (A Pocketguide to..., by Shimeck) is a companion reference. Amazon has them for 19.77 a piece with free ship.

These have always been good to me.
