Members are involved in every aspect of the hobby 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 Rainbow Study Group, the American Cichlid Association and American Killifish Association. We are also a member of The Northeast Council of Aquarium Societies.

The Society is dedicated to increasing both knowledge and interest in the hobby through the activities of its' members. Long term involvement is encouraged at every opportunity, for example our annual plant and fish growth projects, and the Breeders' Award Program. As hobbyists 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 hobby.

Past speakers include columnist Lee Finley; Editor of Aquatic Gardners Association's publication Neil Frank; columnist Terry Siegel; Tony Terceira and Karen Randall. Following the program there is an auction of fish and related items.

See you at the meeting on the 3rd Monday of each month in The Exploration Center at The New England Aquarium.
