was wondering if any one had any essential readings for beginners. just got done with the recommended conscientous aquarist by fenner and am looking for some good stuff for basic soft corals not as indepth as you guys are but the basics as well as fish guides etc. thanks

The Borneman book is good. I'd also recommend the Reef Aquarium Vol. 1 by Sprung and Delbeek. Vol. 2 is specifically about soft corals, but doesn't have the general reef tank info that Vol. 1 has.
