Reader ReviewsI picked up this book from a local pet store. I've been in the saltwater hobby for 11 years. I was always a fish-only guy. I snagged this book on a whim, and I love it. If you are a newbie, and thinking of getting into a mini-reef with live rock, live sand, corals, and maybe some fish .. then this book is a great place to start. Another reviewer mentions something about the title being deceiving. I think he was looking for a nano-reef book. Like a tiny 12 gallon aquarium. This book is not really about nano-reefing. Check out nano-reef.com if you're really looking for that type of information.
