This Month’s Meeting
For the April 18th meeting, we will have some talks about live and prepared food.
Come on out and see how to make or culture your own food so that your fish are the healthiest they can be. This is better than the best flake or pellet food you can buy. It also gives your fish some options to ensure that their nutrition is complete.
JOIN US as we meet in person on the 3rd Friday of each month:
