must have reef books

[fishdude1984]

I know that there are many many good books out there about reef keeping, but are there any must haves, any definitive guides to the different set ups(berlin, wet-dry, Lighting, plumbing ect...) I think a book just on aquarium plumbing would be nice, anyways I guess what im asking is, are there any must have reef keeping books out there and what are they? Im new to the reef keeping side of the hobby so any good info helps, plus who doesn’t love to sit back with a good book?!

One of the "must-reads" would have to be "Reef Invertebrates: An Essential Guide to Selection, Care and Compatibility " by Anthony Calfo and Robert Fenner...

I also have and love the "A PocketExpert Guide to Marine Invertebrates" by Ron Shimek and the "Marine Fishes: 500+ Essential-To-Know Aquarium Species" by Scott W. Michael.
