The conscientious marine aquarist by fenner
Aquairium Corals by Borerman
These I found educational. HTH

Any book under microcosm publishing is awsome. i would also cet Scott Michael's Marine Fishes, a quick guide to over 500 fish, awsome too for choosing which fish to buy

Ask and you shall receive, The salt water bible(s)
Thanks, Almarktool, j21kickster & NaCl-H20
so my reading list is- The conscientious marine aqurist
The marine aquarium
Aquarium corals
Marine fishes a quick guide
Microcosm publishing (anything)
Salt water fish for dummies
( for good measure)

IMO, "The New Marine Aquarium" is the beat all Saltwater Guide for Dummies(although not titled as such). it is one of the easiest reading books i have heard of in this hobbyand is very informative, with step by step instructions of everything right down to selection of fishes.
I agree first book, first tank, then this should be your first book.
