PREVIEW: May/June 2009 CORAL

The March/April 2009 Issue of CORAL features must-read articles from cover to cover, starting with a lavishly illustrated, in-depth guide to mouthbrooding fishes. Daniel Knop and a team of CORAL writers and photographers focus on a range of species, with special coverage of the Banggai Cardinalfish.

Aquarist Phillip Scheller of the Aquarium of the Pacific provides the recipe for keeping and feeding non-photosynthetic stony corals, gorgonians, and even Dendronephthya spp. Glorious images in his article Deep Reef, Hungry Reef provide proof that these formerly difficult-to-keep corals can thrive in the right conditions.

Also in the issue: Matt Wittenrich goes eyeball-to-eyeball with a startlingly beautiful collection hermit crabs that so many hobbyists overlook. Includes coverage of the best and worst species for reef aquaria.

Charles Delbeek shares his experience with some of the world's rarest reef fishes, with the secrets of acclimating and keeping Holy Grail deepwater species.

Also forthcoming: a trip to North Sulawesi, Reef News, the featured aquarium profile, a beginner's introduction to strontium, a memorable CORAL interview, new aquarium ideas and products and much more.
