Summary: Coral Bible
Comment: What can I say here that hasn't been said by everyone in the aquarium industry? Nothing...it's the standard template for information about corals if you have a reef aquarium. I will boldly say that it's foolish to not own this book if you own a coral. I'm crossing my fingers that Mr Borneman will put out a second edition. This is the be all, end all of coral and reef aquarium literature. Be smart and responsible and learn about your animals before bringing them into your house. Anything less is irresponsible and makes you "part of the problem". This is the first step to being an informed, responsible reef aquarist. Thanks so much Mr Borneman!

Summary: Best Coral Book available
Comment: Great husbandry information, good (as you can get) identification, simple but sufficient biology of corals, and tons of beautiful pictures make this the single book on corals that I open anymore. I'm very glad it made it's way into my reef library.

Summary: Extremely in depth book, a must have for coral enthusiasts!
Comment: This book is extremely deep in its explanation of all of the families of corals found in saltwater reef aquariums. Its a pretty heavy read, and I recommend something a little more basic if you are just getting into reef aquariums. This is my second book on corals, after a more basic and general saltwater hobby book. Had I not read the first one, I would have been a little overwhelmed by this one. Also, its a beautiful hardbound book that would do well as a coffee table book. The pictures of the corals are beautiful. I purchased it used, and the seller was punctual on delivery, with the book being in as good, if not better condition than was described.

Summary: An essential book
Comment: An essential book for marine reef hobbyists, if you are interested in aquarium corals, this is one of the references you must review. Good pictures, extended information about each coral genus and quality information about coral care and maintenance in different types of reef aquariums.
Excellent quality-price relation for a book of one of the subject reference authors.

Summary: A must-have for all hobbists
Comment: This book is simply "the bible" for corals. Not only it has an outstanding presentation (hard cover, deluxe paper, thousands of high-quality pictures) but also everything you need to know about corals. Great for the beginner, indispensable for the seasoned hobbist. If you are into reef tanks, you must own this book.
