We are based in the UK with the following aims:
(a) To promote an interest in the study and maintenance of Anabantoidei, Nandidae, Channidae and Badidae wherever possible.
(b) To provide members and other interested enquirers, with information on the maintenance and breeding of Anabantoidei, Nandidae, Channidae and Badidae.
(c) To encourage the breeding and distribution of Anabantoidei, Nandidae, Channidae and Badidae with the initial objective of making such species readily available to members.
(d) To support and contribute to conservation projects, university studies and research as appropriate that are concerned with Anabantoidei, Nandidiae, Channidae and Badidae.
(e) To publish a newsletter, which shall be known as Labyrinth, by and for the members of the Association. This newsletter is to be the voice of the Association and provide the opportunity to gain and share information and knowledge.

Breeders Scheme
At the recent member’s weekend we had a quick presentation about the new Breeder’s Scheme.
In short, we have a lot of talented fish breeders in our membership and it’s about time we started to give credit for all the hard work people put into conditioning their fish and getting the water quality just right to encourage their fish to breed.
