?'s about the growth of hobby in North America



Hello,

I am a student writing a sample proposal which will try to explain the
benefits of a North American petstore chain paying more attention to the
hobbyists interested in planted aquariums.  In doing so I have to convince
them that the market is there.  I was going to do this by explaining how
much the hobby has grown.

The only two ways I could think to do this was by showing how much the AGA
and the APD have grown.  Could anyone involved give me some numbers
(estimates) of growth?

Are there any good references anyone could suggest that gives a good
history of the hobby?

I thought other North American enthusiasts might be interested in how much
their hobby has grown also.  That is why I posted here.  My apologies if
this is not the case.
