Reefkeeping Fundamentals

Reefkeeping Fundamentals is a book that raises the standard of what a hobbyist can achieve.  The author deep dives into the science and technology behind the creation of a complete ecosystem in our home. Fundamental issues are reviewed, dispelling myths and providing a rigorous, useful and innovative view.

   The guide explores aspects such as coral classification, aquarium type, water circulation, lighting, aquascaping, feeding, fish and coral quarantine, seawater composition and algae pests. The reader will find the information needed to achieve a mature and stable system, correctly establish the food web and consolidate an optimal nutrient flow. An excellent guide with best recommendations to get to the next level.

   The volume includes numerous underwater photographs of fish, corals and invertebrates in their natural habitat, as well as technical descriptions of some reference set ups, as inspiration for each personal project. A YouTube channel, accessed via QR codes within the book, shows microscopic organisms that inhabit reef aquariums, explanations of specific equipment, and personal interviews with leading hobbyists. A high value proposition, never before included in a single book.
