Whats a good book?

[susserman]

I was just wondering if there is like one really good book on setting up and maintaining an aquarium. I'm gonna be on a 10 hour flight so I thought a book would be good considering I won't be able to check out RC

The Conscientious Marine Aquarist is a great read

And I should add I have a decent sized library of books on our hobby That's the one I could recommend, if I could only recommend one....

Tylt33 I just looked it up and it does seem like a great book and if you have more suggestions I'm open, I'mm looking to learn as much as I can before I set up my own tank.

PS altogether I be on the plane 20 hours so I'm looking at more than just 1 book I guess.

borneman's aquarium corals is always a fun book to look through.

the new marine aquarium by michael s paletta is a good read, and ultimate marine aquariums by the same author as well, the latter isnt about setting up though, its packed with photos and stats of world class systems, once you pick it up you wont put it down again.

happy reading

All of the above are good reads and not to pricey, if you want to spend some money The Reef Aquarium Vol 1,2, and 3 by Delbeek and Sprung is a good read as well.
