I will probably go to the show in 2008 but not a member. I'm supportive of what I think the ACA is about. And I'm sure there are plenty of good people who belong. But amazing how one bad member can turn you off of the whole association..

Correct me if I'm wrong...but I'm fairly certain you need to be a member to attend the convention.
 
Sorry, but i'm not paying 25.00$ for a year membership, considering they are not close to florida. I think I'll stay at mfk.

Nope. I went to the Chicago show and I'm not a member.

Not too bad. I met a couple of cool MFKers. I did expect more from all of the hype though.
 
You guys do know there are benefits to becoming an ACA member, right?

Things like the Buntbarsche Bulletin (mailed to you) and the Trading Post (online)?

There is so much that the ACA tries to accomplish Nationally and Internationally with the help of volunteers and member participation each year. We need active members to help make suggestions, write articles/experiences, donate, and support our hobby of keeping cichlids thru the club.

Please join. Then explain to us what you would like to see at conventions and from the hobby. Be active and help out. We are the hobbyist! That means we are the future of this great hobby!!!!

whats teh Bulletin about??

The Buntbarsche Bulletin is a publication/magazine with articles on species, breeding techniques, conservation, news from the "wild", and so on. Very helpful with contacts, advertisements for new products, and cichlid related info. I enjoy each issue. The articles are by the Pros and by hobbyist alike.
