    I am very excited!!! Anthony Calfo is coming in April to give a talk to our Reef Club about European techniques and practices. I am also going to get to go to dinner with him (and of course other club members!)

    I guess I should go get a book! What is his best one? Anyone have recommendations?

    Perhaps :D

    Actually, I believe he lives in Pittsburgh? (I could be wrong) or in PA anyway so it is not too far from here...couple hours.

    OMG!!!!!! I would like to meet him.....he wrote/co-authored 2 of my favorite reef books....inverts in the natural marine aquarium series and some good technical stuff on coral propagation. His book he coauthored Invertibrates is the best ive read on inverts.

    I have both of his books and the Invert book is great with beautiful pics. That's the one you want to get if you only get one.

    I ordered off his site and he autographed it for me. There was some mix up with the computer and he wanted to be sure he got the order straight. We talked for a long time and he was very encouraging and gave me some good advice. Very nice guy. You'll love meeting him. Maybe some day I'll also have the opportunity to meet him.

    You lucky girl!
