Members

The Canberra and District Aquarium Society Incorporated (CDAS) is an association of amateur aquarists. We hold monthly meetings and other functions to allow members to meet and talk about fish and fish keeping. The meetings are designed to stimulate discussion on all sorts of topics related to the hobby and to provide opportunities for members to exchange ideas, knowledge and livestock.

CDAS is the perfect vehicle to find out more about fish keeping. Whether you are a complete novice who just wants to learn how to keep your fish alive or an expert who wants to know more about the science behind their aquarium, you'll find the help you need.
Memberships are due at the October & November club meetings. Reminder emails will be sent out to all members. All members will be required to fill out membership application forms each year as a way of keeping contact details and CDAS Inc. records up to date.

Services and activities available to members at these meetings include:

• Library – extensive range of aquarium related books and videos;
• Auction – Buy and sell plants and fish;
• Guest speakers – Each month a member or special guest delivers a talk (and often a slideshow) on a variety of topics;
• Speak to fellow fish enthusiasts - CDAS provides a great opportunity for members to discuss this fascinating hobby with other enthusiasts.

CDAS offers much more than just meetings. Other activities include:

• A quarterly magazine containing articles about local conditions - written and produced by CDAS members
• An annual fish breeders award
• A society Web Page

You are more than welcome to visit a meeting and if you find things to your liking become a member.
