Species maintenance by affliate clubs:

[AUS62 at aol_com]

Mike Bartlett raises an interesting idea, but really don't believe it should 
be mandatory. The idea is for each affiliate club of the AKA to select a 
species to be maintained by the members. My local group, the Suncoast 
Killifish Society elected to do this about six months ago and we are 
maintaining Aphyosemion bitaeniatum "multicolor" 47km Lagos-Ibidan. To our 
knowledge, this is the only chromaphyo-semion with a specific collection 
site. 

There are about twenty-five affiliate clubs in existence. If each club 
adopted a KCC species that would insure a well established reservoir for 
about 25 killifish species right now. There will be a push for volunteers for 
the KCC species maintenance at the AKA convention with sign up sheets. Give 
it some thought; consider having your affilate club select a species and sign 
up!
