The 101 Best Nano-Reef Species: How to Choose & Keep Hardy, Brilliant, Fascinating Species That Will Thrive in Your Small Aquarium (Adventurous Aquarist Guide)

Nice book with lots of info for those with reef aquariums

Sorry for yelling in the title, but the Kindle version of this book has HORRIBLE formatting. I was able to return the Kindle version and bought the printed book instead. The difference in readability and quality between the two is like night and day! The printed book is also very small, so it's not like it's hard to hold or takes up much space. I'm still a huge fan of electronic books, but it would appear fish/aquarium related books do not translate well to electronic format.As for the actual book, I was VERY impressed with the amount of information crammed into this thing. I thought it was going to mainly be a page-by-page listing of fish that are good for nano reefs, but it includes a wealth of information around choosing your equipment, how to set things up, maintenance required, and THEN lists out both fishes and invertebrates that work well in nano reef tanks.I would go as far to say that a beginner interested in starting up a nano reef aquarium could purchase JUST this book and gain an understanding of all that is needed and what livestock they can put in their tank. That is not saying this is an exhaustive tome of reef aquariums and livestock, but it is enough to get you started. I still purchased and am reading other books on fishes and invertebrates to better understand things, but so far I haven't found anything that would have helped me more in setting up a nano reef and stocking it than this book provides.

Sticker says new, but front cover, upper right some dark gooey-sticky stuff was on there, thankfully it wiped off well with some Mr. Clean antibacterial disinfectant wipes (thus the 4 star rating; no telling with germs these days & some people just lack cleanliness...ugh!)

I cant get enough information on reef tanks so any book that is reasonable priced I will give it a try. This one is excellent. Its easy to understand and has information you will need for any size nano tank. He gives great descriptions of each fish and how to take care of it. I really likethe way he has peaceful to aggressive right on the page so you can be sure how you want your tank. The book is well written withclear pictures. There is information for 5 to 30 gallon tanks, very helpful.

I am building a 250 gallon reef aquarium, currently with a 10 gallon nano-reef. Essentially, my 250 gallon reef will be a very large nano-reef.The 101 Best Nano-Reef Species is a simple way to know what to do to make it work. Strongly recommended for those wanting any system under 100 gallons, or even 250 if you are looking at a reef with no, or few, fish.

Good book. Nice editing. Clear and specific information.

Great little book for the coffee table. Awesome colored photos of many amazing sea creatures.

Excellent reference for the nano reef beginners. It explains a lot of what you need to build a nano reef by yoour owm and gives you advices and warnings.

I like the constant easy to follow format and simple color code system. Just enough info to make decisions on specie selections.

A great book to consult before heading off to the fish shop. Do your research first before making that purchase and this book is the perfect place to start.

Hilfreich und informativ. Das perfekte Buch für den Nano- Aquarianer. Die Fische sind gut organisiert nach Großen und Kompatibilität der Tiere.

Very good. I loved the book. recomendo a todos que queiram ter um nano Reef. O livro estáPreço bom.

Quando sono indecisa se un animale è adatto o no per il mio nano acquario consulto sempre questo libro. Grande fonte di idee
