What is Mariculture?
Mariculture's main focus is the Aquatic Environment. It adds terrain generation to the oceans, with things like coral and kelp, to improve the visuals of the underwater world. The mod also expands upon the vanilla fishing system, adding various types of rods and loot you can catch with them, while requiring you to use bait in order to operate these new fishing rods. As well as this, Mariculture introduces fish breeding, which can be a handy way to get your hand on various resources, slowly but surely. There is also jewelry that you can enchant made from pearls, as well as various new objects, that will help with exploring under and above water. Mariculture also adds various machines, that use or create Redstone Flux, with a focus on water related things to power them, or function.
Wiki? Books?
If you are stuck, as long as you have the mod Enchiridion installed alongside Mariculture, you will have books that you can read that will help explain many more indepth things about the mod. The first one will usually be given to you on the creation of a new world. The magic book will be given when you harvest a pearl from an oyster. And the three other books will be given to you, when you craft the following: Iron Wheel, Reed Fishing Rod, and Snorkel.

The Mod?
Core
This module, contains all the basic items and machines, that all the other modules rely on. It includes the generation of the ores, as well as the crafting items, used throughout the rest of the mod. It also contains the basic machines, like the vat and crucible furnace, which are intended for combining certain items and liquids, or melting things respectively. More details exactly about the core module can be found in the ingame books are provided. The processing book is the one you are after.
Aesthetics
The Aesthetics module adds a couple of things for decoration, mostly limestone at the moment and a few pearl bricks.
Diving
The Diving module adds three types of gear for exploring underwater. You have your basic Snorkel which just helps you breathe a little longer. The Diving Gear, which requires an Air Pump to get working, Allowing for better vision/speed underwater and the Scuba Gear, setting you to flight underwater and letting you breathe for miles, as well as better vision. To read up more about these, craft yourself a snorkel and it will give you more information about how everything operates when it spawns in the Diving Book!
Factory
The Factory module introduces, ways to produce Redstone Flux in the form of the Turbines. It also lets you create custom blocks, in stairs and other designs, with different textures per side. There is also the Auto-Dictionary which is a block to help with unifying ores. The module also includes the F.L.U.D.D. a fun way to get around the world! As well as the Mechanized Sponge, helpful for clearing out large swathes of water. To find out more about all the blocks in this module, simply craft an iron wheel and you will get the Factory book, detailing various information about all the blocks and items.
Fishery
This module, adds 40 new fish, to catch and to breed! Fish can be placed in a fish feeder, where they will produce various different items for you. Once done they produce egg, which can be hatched in to more fish. The module adds a ton of loot that you can catch with fishing rods, as well as introducing various new rods, that need to bait work. If you really hate fishing there is the autofisher, which will let you sit back and relax, though it isn't quite as efficient with it's bait as a player is. To find out more information about this module, crafting a Reed Fishing Rod and it will give you the fishing book which contains plenty of information about how to get started.
Magic
This module adds various new enchantments that can only be placed on Jewelry. The semantics of how this system works depends on your Mariculture version, whether you are on 1.6 or 1.7. To find out more, simply harvest a pearl, and you will get the book! (Note: the book is outdated for 1.7 currently but will be fixed in the future!)
Transport
Currently this module only adds the speedboat, this is an unbreakable boat(except by player), that goes at a fast speed across the water!
World
Warning with this module, the generation can be quite intense, so for those with weaker computers, I'd recommend disabling it! Currently this module adds Kelp and Coral to the Oceans, as well as generally making them deeper. Kelp is a good source of food, while coral is great for dyes!
Mod Compatibility
Blood Magic
With Blood Magic installed, a new fishing rod is available, the bound fishing rod, you can make it using the ritual of binding on a Titanium Fishing Rod. This bound rod uses rotten flesh and blood shards as bait. To use beast mode, you need to use blood shards. There is also a new ritual, Ritual of The Blood River. This doubles the chance of mutation in an incubator(Make sure the incubator is directly above the master ritual stone).
Biomes O Plenty
Mariculture has config options to make it's coral and kelp generate in the BOP biomes. It also adds temperature/salinity support for the vast number of BOP biomes, with custom values.
Forestry
Mariculture let's you craft forestry bees in to bee bait which can be used for fishing, you can eat them if you like! It also adds an Aquatic backpack, for storing all your watery goodies.
Hunger Overhaul
Mariculture automatically nerfs it's food with Hunger Overhaul installed, as well as adding some nasty effects!
Not Enough Items
Mariculture adds NEI integeration, so you can see various different recipes through it's handlers.

Mariculture adds a couple of recipes to the pulverizer as well as letting you melt redstone in it's crucible furnace.

Mariculture adds Titanium tool parts, as well as letting you perform various recipes in the smeltery. There is also a pearl modifier, which lets you put mariculture pearls on a tinkers tool, this will increase mining speed underwater.
Thaumcraft
A lot of the Mariculture stuff should have their unique aspects, some may be missing, but the most common items should have them!
Waila
Mariculture has a plugin that let's you see the contents of a Vat!

Yes. Please do not ask me.
How do I disable certain Enchantments?

This is a mod that enhances minecraft at it's basics. It did not add giant machines or new dimensions. It added creatures. Not dragons or dinosaurs, but flies and lizards. And each and every one of them had a personality, a feeling.. an atomtosphere... yeah.
