Great Help! by E. Cousins (Atlanta GA)  4 Stars
August 12, 2009
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!
