I just got back from my first dive trip, in roatan, and have a bunch of great pictures, but dont know what any of it is. What would be a good place to look up coral and fish and start learning the names?
 
Post the pictures here. Or get the Reef ID Set - it's very good, and the most complete that I know of.

I would get (and have) all 3 books in the set... The Reef Fish, Creatures, and Corals.
 
I agree with Howarde,

If it isn't in one of those books, you probably didnt see it around here. The "nema somthing" in your pictures is a Flamingo Tongue. Interesting perspective of it.
 
It isn't a complete guide, but it is one of the best. You may never need another one. I like my set of Humann books.
 
The macroalgae section sucks. Plants always get the shaft... :D
