Thanx for the welcome.

I've already been continuing the reading with "Aquarium Corals" by Borneman; "Natural Reef Aquariums" by Tullock; and am currently reading "Reef Invertebrates" by Calfo & Fenner. I've also got "Marine Fishes Pocket Expert" by Michael and Baensch Marine Atlases Vol. 1-3, although the latter was a waste of money IMO. You have to be a scientist to understand alot of what they say and also they are incomplete in regards to specimen reference. Where are all the fish!
Other titles I plan on getting in the future are Calfo & Fenner's Vol. 2 Reef Fishes and Vol. 3 Cnidarians.
Any other books you can recommend would be greatly appreciated.
What about Delbeek & Sprung's books? Are you familiar with those? Any good?
I hear ya about books versus 'net. Being middle aged, (I guess), I'm somewhat technologically challenged. Plus, I'd just rather have something in my hands that I can flip thru. With the net if you don't print it it's kinda like..."where did I see that again?" sometimes.
Thanx for the coral suggestions. I'll research those.
BTW...I grew up in North Van. (Lynn Valley).
Cheers.
