none. i refuse to pay the money they cost when i have the internet at my fingertips plus half the books out there are filled with bs anyway. better to gain knowledge from other peoples experiences IMO.
I'd like to pick up some Eartheater books some time in the future, but the Internet is my current knowledge tool (as bad as it can be for that!)
Out of my 25-30 fish books, the majority of them state incorrect sizes, scientific names (Although this can be plausible) and tank recommendations etc.
The biggest thing that ticks me off is that you can tell they took the pictures from a 1980's fish tank.

That's why IMO the ones it really pays to own are not the generic "tropical fish" atlas/books but the specialty books that will cover a select group/species of fish.
I only own less than 10 fish books, but have a good number of TFH magazines from 1994-1996 and 2004-present.
If you want to go to magazines, they are the ones which state good information. I will always buy a fish mag over a book.
