A Good Reference - A vital guide for either the informed recreation diver or the pacific coral reef student/researcher/worker. The ID photos are some of the best I've seen snd the information content is small but involving and useful. Interestingly, I found the simply drawn lined diagrams at the beginning of each section of particular use in order to help distinguish between the fish families so if when diving - the name of the species escapes you as it speedily swims by (easily done with most tropical fish with such diversity to be seen in life stages let alone between species) you may still be able to deduce the family to which it belongs with this book's help. A good investment should you be keen to improve your tropical fish ID. Review: The only downside is that it adds more weight than I'd like to my dive bag - One of the most comprehensive Fish books I've seen. The only downside is that it adds more weight than I'd like to my dive bag, but I lug it around pretty much everywhere I go diving as I find it indispensable in identifying fish. Have spent many a nerdy evening over drinks with local drive instructors poring over it and enthusing over some obscure finned creature. There is a PDF version available which my partner has very conveniently on his phone, and while it does make weight a non issue, I do miss thumbing through the pages to get to what I'm looking for... ## Features - Reef Fish Identification Guide of the Tropical Pacific - 2,500 underwater photographs of 2,000 species from four of the best marine life authors/photographers in the business - A comprehensive fish identification guide covering the fish-rich reefs of the Pacific, 108 fish families are presented in one of 20 Identification groups based on a family's related visual or behavioral characteristics, such as LargeOval/Colorul or Sand/Burrow Dwellers - The authors collaboration makes it possible for underwater naturalists to identify fishes from Thailand to Tahiti with a single, compact, easy-to-use, no-nonsense reference - House Of Scuba Is An Authorized Dealer! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 977,387 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 228 in Scuba Diving 339 in Fish (Books) 393 in Reference Directories | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 151 Reviews | ## Images ![Reef Fish Identification: Tropical Pacific - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/717ax+K9KtL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for ID!
