I am just getting into the hobby (very very new to it) and would like some guidance on how to learn what I need to know before I begin building a tank. Are there any suggested books, or specific websites to read? Its all a bit overwhelming, but I want to do it right. I scored a 24 gallon Aquapod today from Craigslist so it will sit empty until I have learned all I need to.

Any suggestions for books or sites to read? I would love to do a very basic tank to start with, some easy beginners corals would be great. But I wont do it until I am confident I wont kill anything.

Also, might want to start hanging out in the nano forum, as there are lots of aquapod owners in there, so plenty of people to give you very specific advice.
