The Boston Aquarium Society

Thank you for joining us!

Founded in 1916, The Boston Aquarium Society is one of the nation's oldest aquarium societies. The Boston Aquarium Society is dedicated to increasing both knowledge and interest in aquarium keeping through the activities of our members. Long term involvement is encouraged at every opportunity through programs like our monthly bowl show, grow out contests and our Breeding Initiative.

We enjoy the fellowship afforded us through this type of organization. The Boston Aquarium Society is a member of the Northeast Council of Aquarium Societies (NEC) and a member of the Federation of American Aquarium Societies (FAAS).

We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with public charity status.

A live local club can take you to new depths of experience, ideas, and recognition (plus fish and plants) that simply cannot be achieved by going it alone via standard retail, online searches, and social media.
