guide to corals and fish of the red sea?

[scubasue2]

Is there a place on this site where you can find out about books?

I'd really like to get a guide to the fish/corals of the red sea before I go so I have it with me... I have a pretty good one on Caribbean reef fish (paul humman I think....). I'd like something similar if there's one out there? Any recommendations?

Thanks for all the info guys!

I compiled a concise Red Sea flora / fauna guide. You can download it from http://www.red-sea-shadow.com/downloads/RSS_FloraFauna.exe

If you want a definitive guide, there're a couple of books in the market. Let me search for their names.

Red Sea Reef Guide by Helmut Debelius.

And this is probably the best book.

This is the most known guide (aka the yellow book). However, it's not the best.

I think that the best guide ever for the Red Sea flora / fauna is Coral Guide Red Sea by Lieske and Myers.
