Sand Bed Secrets book by Shimek This book is designed to provide the reader with all the essentials of constructing a deep sand filter in a coral reef aquarium. Used in conjunction with some methods to export non soluble nutrients, deep sand beds provide a cheap, conceptually simple, and methodologically easy way to manage nutrient flow and build up in coral reef aquarium systems.
Dr. Shimek started his path to becoming a marine invertebrate zoologist & ecologist with his first salt water aquarium in 1962. His interest piqued, so he went on to study zoology first at Montana State and later at U of Washington where he received his M.S. and Ph.D. for work done investigating marine soft sediment ecosystems. He has written numerous articles for aquarium magazines as well as many scientific publications. He is a world recognized authority in scaphopod mollusks and turrid gastropods and has been an invited speaker at scientific meetings.
