How To Join

The Society is dedicated to increasing both knowledge and interest in aquarium keeping through the activities of its' members. Long term involvement is encouraged at every opportunity, for example our Breeding Initiative and Bowl Show competitions. We enjoy the fellowship afforded us through this type of organization. Members have willingly donated fish, plants, time and knowledge to school projects to bring children into the avocation.

Members are involved in every aspect of aquarium keeping from marine to aquatic plants, many species of fish and ponds. Some of our members write for national magazines and are involved in a variety of organizations such as Aquatic Gardeners Association, the International Guppy Education and Exhibition Society, the Rainbow Study Group, the American Cichlid Association and American Killifish Association.

We are also a member of The Northeast Council of Aquarium Societies and the Federation of American Aquarium Societies. Want to learn more? Check out our about us page.
