thoes are all good books, some not for beginners though hehe.. if you want a cheep book to explain the general theorys and ideas behind stuff I would recomend "Marine Reef Aquarium Handbook, by Dr. Robert J. Goldstein" there is a bit of outdated stuff (like info on pleniums) and such but it explains the basics very well. as with any book don't take what they say for Gospal but rather read then ask question on the boards.
this book ws the first book I bought and I still refer back to it for some things.. From there youcan then buy mose spicific books like "Aquarium Corals by Eric Borneman and Corals quick reference guide by Julian Sprung" or "Reef Aquarium by Chuck Delbeek and Jullian Sprung." but for the money you have to invest in the others ..make sure they are what you need befor you buy them.
