Tullock, Martin A. Moe Reef
Aquarium :
Using live rock and
live coral sand as part of a natural
filtration system, the home aquarist can
now mimic habitats such as a Florida Keys
Lagoon, a Caribbean Turtle Grass Flat, an
indo-Pacific Deep Cave, or a Red Sea
Patch Reef. With more than 100 full-color
photographs and illustrations, this
volume provides inspiration for both
beginning and expert marine reef
hobbyists....Read More

Reader Reviews: Comprehensive, great
info on simulating regions, great
photo
This is a
wonderfully comprehensive book on the
challenging project of keeping a
salt-water reef aquarium. Although still
technology dependent, it emphasizes
natural materials and methods to simulate
this complex environment.
Plumbing,
temperature control, lighting &
filtration systems are covered in detail
with step-by-step instructions on setting
up the aquarium and establishing a living
reef colony utilizing live rock &
sand.
My favorite feature
of the book is the detailed analysis of
the reef biology of different regions
with recommendations for simulating them
in the aquarium. These include Caribbean,
Gulf of Mexico and Pacific reefs.
There are great
color photos throughout the book of the
fascinating & beautiful corals,
invertebrates and fishes that can inhabit
the reef aquarium. A superb list of
sources completes this essential
reference.
