Excellent book! Casual and funny, but informative!
Well written, smart, and full of info. You'll love this book if you're thinking of starting a nano-reef.

Good book for someone new to the hobby
A very good book for anyone considering this hobby or is just getting into it.

Horrible - Not informative at all.
This book is written by the same author as The Simple Guide to Marine Aquariums. These two books contain virtually identical information -- in some cases they're even word for word the same. I thought this book would be a step up for someone moving from a basic fish only tank to a reef tank -- it isn't. It spends chapter after chapter discussing the nitrogen cycle and basic filtration. He mentions a sump many times in the book, yet never explains what it is, how to use one, or even shows a picture of one...not the best move to skip this extremely important information when talking to beginners. I bought this book thinking it would have a basic 'intro to sumps', one of the most important pieces of reef keeping equipment and I get no information whatsoever. This book is completely worthless.
