"The Conscientious Marine Aquarist" by Robert Fenner is a great book... it gives all kinds of info on setup, maintenance, and stocking, plus lots of details on a wide variety of marine specimens, including what to look for before purchase, behavior, feeding, reproduction, and disease.

I wish I had read this book BEFORE I got into the hobby... it would have saved me a lot of work and heartache!

Congrats on your decision to go salt! Keep us posted on your progress!
