Good Coral reef marine life ID book's

[PeacockMantis]

Hi,

I am looking for a good Identification book to cover the Pacific/Red sea underwaterworld. I can find seperate books about fish, nudibranches, plants, etc etc but I would like to have 1 (or 2) good (and fairly complete) book(s) which covers it all: fish, crabs, shripms, starfish, jellyfish, turtles, urchins, sponges, corals, nudibranche, mammals, etc etc.
ID is the main purpose, but with extra background/behavioural info, would make it all complete.

Which book(s) would you recommend?

Thank you in advance

You would not be able to lift a book that had everything in it. Too much stuff. There is not just one Start with the Deloach books.
