Great Help!,

This review is from: Handy Pocket Guide to Tropical Coral Reef Fishes (Handy Pocket Guides) (Paperback)
PLEASE NOTE THAT MY MENTION OF THE GA AQUARIUM FACILITY DOES NOT TRANSLATE IN THE AQUARIUM ENDORSEMENT OF ANY ITEM I MIGHT REFER TO IN MY REVIEW!
I am a volunteer at the GA Aquarium and I found this book while on the look out for something quick and easy to refer to while reviewing my fish identification skills. I use this book all the time when I browse around the aquarium and or I have a quick guest question. I didn't give it 5 stars because I wished it included more species and allowed me to make it my main go to quick-guide. My all time favorite so far is "Coral Reef Fishes: Indo-Pacific and Caribbean" by Ewald Lieske and Robert Myers. I especially like the fact that it provides the fish silouettes by family: this helps me quite a bit as it allows me to narrow down to a family when I am confused :) Enjoy!

If you're looking for a comprehensive book on coral reef fishes, this is not a book for you. For beginners, kids, as a quick reminder after a dive - this is very useful.

This book was exactly what I hoped for -- small and simple to take on a tropical vacation where we want a handy guide to identify fish we see.
