Aquarium Societies, Fish Clubs, and Reef Clubs
This section is for local aquarium clubs to host their message board. If you have an aquarium club, fish club, or reef club, and you would like us to setup a free forum for your members to interact, please contact us.
In October 2007, the Colorado Aquarium Society celebrated it's diamond (60th) anniversary as an organization. Very few fish clubs survive this long! This forum is for all members of the Society to discuss topics of their choice.
The Florida Marine Aquarium Society’s mission is to bring together the expertise and experience of its members, with a purpose to share this information with others. By providing this wealth of information to all, the society strives to protect the quality of life for marine organisms maintained in aquaria. Creating an awareness of natural marine ecosystems in order to protect and share them with future generations.

This forum is for all members and prospective members of the Society to stay in touch. The GCAS is a casual club of freshwater hobbyists of all experience levels who meet the 2nd Wednesday of each month from 7:30 to 9:30 PM. The meetings start with time to mingle, then a quick review of club business, usually followed by a presentation given by a club member or invited speaker, and finally an auction of fish, plants, and products. Usually we have coffee and cookies for refreshments.
Otherwise known as the AandTSociety, this subforum is for the Aquarium and Terrarium society of Queensland Australia. We hope to expand the interests of fellow Societies as to what the hobby can entail within a group, rather than just meetings at a clubhouse or homes. Read the threads for an opportunity to see a bit of what a group like ours has as a special interest above just the standard aquarium club activities that most carry out. The society was formed in 1926, and if you would like to be a member, you're more than welcome to join.
