Authored by Dr. Harry Erhardt and Dr. Horst Moosleitner, "Baensch Marine Atlas 3" picks up where "Atlas 2" leaves off. It is the third and final marine invertebrates identification and care profile book in this series we highly recommend for any saltwater aquarist who is planning to be or already is a reefkeeper.
  • Description - Contains 600 pages with more than 500 full-color photographs, and profiles 500 marine invertebrate species.
  • Price - Moderate range.
  • Publisher - Aqua Medic Inc.
  • Publisher - Tetra Press
  • Publisher - Microcosm Limited
    • Hardcover; Paperback
"Baensch Marine Atlas 3" centers around the following marine invertebrates:
  • Molluscs: Filibranchs - Oysters, Scallops & Clams
  • Cephalopods: Squids, Octopods, etc.
  • Segmented Worms
  • Echinoderms: Starfishes, Sea Urchins, Sea Cucumbers, and Sea Squirts
Because "Atlas 2" contains pages numbering 1-736, and "Baensch Marine Atlas 3" continues on with pages 737-1326, you can easily see that these two atlases are designed to be used in conjunction with one another. Both have indexes in the back to easily locate the information you are looking for in each, but "Atlas 3" goes one step further and includes an index for locating information by page numbers in both atlases. With "Atlas 3" being the third and final book in this series, it also contains a word glossary. To get the full value of this book it should be purchased along with "Baensch Marine Atlas 1" and Baensch Marine Atlas 2".
