A PocketExpert Guide to Marine Invertebrates: 500+ Essential-to-Know Aquarium Species
Following in the wake of the hugely popular PocketExpert Guide to Marine Fishes is this eagerly awaited title in the Microcosm/T.F.H Professional Series. Interest in marine invertebrates is exploding as saltwater fishkeeping technology makes it ever easier to sustain these environments in home aquaria, and A PocketExpert Guide to Marine Invertebrates is the ultimate reference for these “hooked” hobbyists. The book is a compact, fact-filled guide for recognizing and keeping a host of beautiful and bizarre invertebrates- shrimps, crabs, corals, anemones, sea stars, clams, snails, sponges, ornamental worms, and many others.
Customer Review: Great guide and a great resource!
I found this to be a great tool in researching general information on everything from corals to sea stars. The photos are great too. For a guide to things that you’ve purchased or are considering purchasing it’s a great tool to get an overview of the requirements of the different inverts. Very helpful, and a great deal for the price. I’d highly recommend it to anyone with a saltwater reef tank.
Customer Review: Great guide
The pictures are clear and the descriptions are very good. I like the size, it’s easy to carry along with you to the store. I have really enjoyed having this kind of information handy.

Turtle Diary
Academy award winners Ben Kingsley and Glenda Jackson star in the exquisite romantic comedy TURTLE DIARY. Critically hailed as a mini-masterpiece, TURTLE DIARY is the enchanting film of people rediscovering the joys of life and love. Popular children’s author Neaera Duncan, fearing her creative talents have evaporated, escapes into the dreamy world of sea turtles seeking inspiration in their beauty and grace. William Snow is a humble assistant in a bookstore where he, too, dreams of the turtles. Outside of their chance meetings at the aquarium, they have little in common, but an inspiration to free the captive turtles starts a bond that give their lives a new outlook.
Customer Review: Wonderfully Crafted Character Studies In Poignant Low Key Drama
“Turtle Diary”, starring the unexpectedly well matched Glenda Jackson and Ben Kingsley is a real personal favourite of mine and it’s off beat, low key charm always fascinates me. In today’s cinema where everything has to be instantaneous to keep the attention of jaded movie goers most films would never attempt to spend the time developing characters and situations as slowly and intricately as we find here. In this story that type of methodical approach works beautifully and allows the two lead actors to really flesh out their characters. Glenda Jackson and Ben Kingsley are totally believable as two very different individuals who are fired by a common cause which in this instance is to remove and then release the huge salt water turtles that are kept at the London Zoo into the ocean. The simple story, low key acting and interesting vignettes involving the supporting cast along the way all add up to a most touching story of self realisation and of the joy an individual can feel by moving outside of their comfort zone to achieve unexpected things. “Turtle Diary”, with its low key charm and everyday characters would never be a hit with the majority of modern day audiences so used to startling special effects and non stop action however for those that appreciate well thought out character studies of very indenitifable people then “Turtle Diary”, makes highly recommended viewing. In one of her most understated performances Glenda Jackson, who has always been a great favourite on mine, truly shows the great acting range she is capable of in a performance which is light years away from her usual power house characterisations in much better known films. The highly satisfying chemistry that she enjoys on screen with Ben Kingsley in an equally low key performance is what makes “Turtle Diary”, work so well and ensures that it be an essential part of any collection or retrospective of this great former actresses work. Try to catch this wonderfully quirky story of two very mismatched individuals united on a single mission as “Turtlenappers”, who not only achieve their aim but also learn something about themselves in the process in the beautifully crafted British film “Turtle Diary” soon. You wont regret it.
