    The Houston Aquarium Society is one of the oldest aquarium clubs in the nation. We hold 3 auctions a year (one just occurred March 15th), field trips, picnics, get togethers, etc. and this would be a great way for you to meet some longtime aquarists. We are the sole remaining charter member of FOTAS, the Federation of Texas Aquarium Societies. Indeed, we are hosting this year's FOTAS convention here in the Houston area. We just lined up the hotel, etc. so be on the lookout for details for the convention or visit www.houstonaquariumsociety.org

        We got all kinds of clubs here. Really depends on what fish you like to keep.

        I would start by looking here.

        HoustonFishBox is an online community dedicated to bringing together people and their fish in Houston, Southeast Texas, and beyond.



        I am a founding member of the Houston Tropheus and Petrochromis Club. We mostly have fun, and we organize trips and tours. There's no fee's, all it takes is for you to PM me your contact info, and what Tropheus or Petrochromis you keep, or if your just looking to learn more about these fish.

        Best of luck and welcome to the site...

                The thread really belongs in one of the general threads. The question in the first post was not directed at GHAC solely.

                  It could go both ways actually... but why is there this animosity between clubs?

                      I don't think either side showed animosity....I just responded to the question posed.

                            What section was the thread under...I don't remember?

                            No issues between the clubs that I'm aware of. All the clubs are good and many belong to more than one. Just a matter of what makes you happy. I suggest to anyone that they should check each one out.

                            BTW....I got the joke...LOL

                              First of all, WELCOME to the Houston Fishbox! This forum got some really cool people as well as weird one. I sometime fall into the weird crowd depending on who you ask. As far as club wise, well, I'm part of NASH (Nature Aquarium Society of Houston) and we are all about Nature Aquarium "planted tank". You are more than welcome to one of our meeting anytime if you ever decide to try a planted tank. You can check here regularly as we will post our meeting date here. For more information, you can also pm me for detail.

                              For all around aquarium keeping. I highly recommend GHAC (Greater Houston Aqurium Club). Very active here on the HFB.

                              GHAC and NASH share a lot of thing in common. We held regular monthly meeting/get together. And having FUN promoting our hobby!

                              Cheers!!!!
