I'd say that Marine Fishes is likely your best bet for research and handy to have on trips to the LFS when you're tempted by a fish you don't know about. Most other books, I've found, have references to a lot of fish that either you can't get or should stay in the ocean (cuz they get huge).
Then again if you're looking for a "coffee table" type book, a neat read etc. Scott Michaels "Reef Fishes" is good. I think theres 3 volumes.
The pocket 500 is definitely the best bang for your buck for condensed, concise info though.
