I'm not Lion Crazz, but a few of the books that have helped me tremendously are:
"The Book of Coral Propagation" - Anthony Calfo (my favorite! It's much, much more than a propagation book.)
"Aquarium Corals" - Eric Borneman
"The Reef Aquarium, Vol. 3" - J. Charles Delbeek & Julian Sprung (I just started reading it, but it contains an immense wealth of knowledge and covers a wide variety of topics at 680+ pages!)

Thanks mrdc I actually saw some of these titles while plundering threw ADDALL book search and wondered about a couple of these you mentioned. Appreciate the feedback, I just put Lion because she posted Barnes and Noble couldn't keep up with her and thought she probably had a lot of ideas. But between you and RobChuck these should keep me busy all the way through the weekend LOL. Just kidding, but I am going to Books A Million this weekend and pick up a couple so the timing here was great.
