Comment
from a reader at Amazon:
This
is the greatest coral book ever written! It is a masterpiece
and includes some of the best underwater coral photography
ever published.It talks about corals strictly out on the wild
reef, but if you take the requirements of the animal in the
wild and apply it to your home aquarium you can not fail. This
book is also the best for identifing all of those mystery stony
corals you have in your tank. There is not one stony coral
on the reef that this book does not discuss. If you have stony
corals or plan to have them in the future then this book is
a must have on your list. The price tag is a little high I
know, but worth every cent. The great pictures alone make it
a great coffee table book and worth the price. If you love
corals don't pass this book up! |

Comment
from a reader at Amazon:
"This is a fabulous set of
books. It is probably the most complete taxonomic encyclopedia
of stony corals in existence. The pictures are beautiful
and the information fascinating. That said, this is not for
your basic reef aquarist. It covers only the stony corals
of the order scleractinia. There is nothing here about zoanthids,
corallimorphs or the various other soft corals." |

Comment from
a reader at Amazon:
An amazingly well done field guide
useful for even advanced fish enthusiasts and scuba divers. I
have used this book on dive trips to the Egyptian red sea, the
sea of Cortez in Mexico and to Cuba, as well as while walking
trough several aquariums in the US, and I have hardly ever failed
to find a tropical fish species I observed in this book. The
illustrations are well done and include juveniles, sex differences
and regional color variants. In addition to the geographic range
of a species, the likely occurrence on the reef (lagoon, outward
reef, sand ...), the depth ranges and information about fish
behavior are indicated. I have found this additional information
extremely useful, especially when trying to identify one of several
similar species. |

This
book contains coral and other invertebrates as well.
Doesn't contain in-depth information but is a good book
for identification of different species. The chart on the
overleaf is really useful for quickly identifying the family
of what a particular animal is from.

This book covers
coral reefs all over the world. It is not a coral or fish identification
tool, but gives the reader an understanding of the current
state of coral reefs worldwide. Individual reefs from particular
locations are listed and discussed. The maps are superb, as
are the color photographs. Great book for an overall look at
coral reefs. |

This
book and others by Mr. Humann are the best in class for Florida,
Caribbean, Bahamas! This is one of three in a "Reef Set" series.
Check
out all of Paul Humann's books.
