RE: Species Maintenance
I hesitate to make this suggestion since I am not very
informed about the way this organization works, but it
seems that many members do not take maintenance of
rare species "seriously". I do not mean anything bad
by that. I just think that there are hobbyists who
just enjoy breeding fish. Why not form a study group
or something similar to what the ACA does that focuses
on maintenance. A requirement for membership would be
that a) you are an AKA member and b) you disclose what
species you work with. This group could then "meet" or
organize in such a fashion as to decide what they
think needs focus. When the group grows they will
become a source of fish that everyone wants. Then in
order to be in on all the great opportunity more
members would be "incented" (is that a word?) to
participate in census type activities. Members of the
group could make it a "mission" to note where they
find certain fish, or what they see in auctions or
swaps. Please no flames, I am just brainstorming
possibilities to help.
