Not Really About Corals by Dean Davison (Stevenson Ranch, CA United States)  2 Stars
July 28, 2001
Having used Tullock's "Reef Aquarium" book extensively, I expected this book to focus on corals specifically. Instead it spends an inordinate amount of time on water conditions, lighting, and other "generic" marine aquarium topics. In fact, only the last 1/4 of the book actually focuses on corals. While the book is helpful and certainly Tullock's knowledge is extensive, the book falls short of its title and ranks poorly compared to other books dedicated to the care of Corals.
