I have read about 4 or 5 books on the subject and about the best one I have found for a good overall read would be:

Amazon.com: Complete Encyclopedia of the Saltwater Aquarium: Books: Nick Dakin,Julian Sprung

Hey Dorothy! I'm glad to see you are also starting a new fish tank. That's great. I've had mine for a few months now, patiently watching, slowly making it nicer everyday. Good luck to you and your future tank. I'd love to see some pics, once you've gotten started.

oh, I found this cool little video on acclimation, it was very helpful to me. check it out maybe it'll be helpful for you to.
Saltwater Fish Superstore - Saltwaterfish.com

I also read a great tutorial, but I can't find the link right now, I think I have it on my home computer, if I find it I'll be sure to post it here. GOOD LUCK!!!
