The Modern Coral Reef Aquarium Volume 1
This book, which contains some of the most inspiring photographs ever published, provides a fascinating look at the natural history and evolution of coral reefs which forms the foundation for understanding reef ecology and its practical application in closed system aquaria.
Beginners and experienced hobbyists will appreciate the wealth of information and beautiful illustrations.
Special emphasis on reef construction, zoogeography, marine algae and microbiology affords an invaluable tool for designing an ecologically responsible system.
Having fuelled the mind of the more inquiring aquarist, further reading sections accompany every topic, giving reference to useful papers, books and magazine articles.
The authors, having combined practice with theory, have sensibly included a chapter discussing marine aquaristics and conservation, boldly tackling sensitive ethical issues.
Also available are volumes 2, 3 and 4.
