Representing two decades of research, writing, and underwater photography, this long-awaited volume provides authoritative coverage of several dozen species, including their social behaviors, feeding habits, reproduction, and expert advice for keeping them alive and healthy in the home aquarium. Many damsels, chromis, sergeants, demoiselles, and gregories in all their amazing colors and diversity, as well as the many species of anemonefishes (clownfishes) and their host anemones, are all covered in detail. Damselfishes & Anemonefishes brilliantly profiles the sprawling family Pomacentridae, which contains many popular and beautiful fishes held in great esteem by aquarists of all skill levels and is sure to be an essential part of every marine reference shelf. It contains absolutely up-to-date, authoritative coverage of popular and rare species, with world-class photography--plus a treasure trove of more than 350 new identification photographs. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A definitive reference covering nearly seventy families and thousands of speciesAny collection strong in aquarium building and marine systems moving beyond the very basic need Damselfishes and Anemonefishes, a definitive reference covering nearly seventy families and thousands of species. Divers, amateur reef naturalists and other neo-pros will find Damselfishes and Anemonefishes packed with specific details and plenty of tips on how to successfully keep healthy aquariums. Bright color photos throughout supplement the many technical and practical details. Rating: - Good things...This book's excellent content is certainly equal in quality to the first three. Economics being what it is, I can understand the slightly lower paper, and cover, quality of this volume. As to the number of books in the series, while more books will ultimately cost more, I'm inclined to believe that the actual scope of Mr. Michael's project grew beyond his original anticipation, and the amount information in the set will be worth the cost, and the wait -- although I really want the rest NOW! Good ... Read More Rating: - I Beg to DifferYes, the paper is not quite as good as on the previous volumes. But given the skyrocketing price of paper, this is no surprise. It is still perfectly adequate and the images are top-notch. It is no surprise to me that this has expanded to multiple volumes given the economics of publishing such low-demand books. Scott Michael's series ultimately will be the most comprehensive series on marine fishes for aquarists. They are a treasure trove of useful information. I only hope they can get ...

Originally it was suppose to be 4 books..........then it went to six....Now it is nine books according to the newest book. I would agree the quality is not as high as the first 3. Still the information is good. Still I will have NINE BOOKS in my Library instead of 4. Lastly who knows how much longer it will take to release the rest. Rating:  - Shame on you TFH Publications While the content of this book is outstanding inline with the rest of the series the publisher of this book took many shortcuts including useing lower quality paper stock then previous volumes, decreasing the size of the book and increasing the size of the series in order to make more profit. I am highly disappointed in the publisher for taking these steps. What was originally supposed to be a 3 books series grew to 5 books with precious releases and with the release of this book has grown to 8 with ... Read More
