I see that there is such a thing as The Aquarium Society of WA - but do you think googling yields anything? Do they even have a site?
If Perth has non-specialised aquaria forums hidden somewhere, and they are as well-organised and frequently trafficked as here, somebody please point me in the right direction!

Other societies in WA actually have their own forum/sections here at the PCS.
Community and Planted Tank Discussion - This Forum is moderated by the Aquarium Society of WA
ANGFA Perth - A forum for the discussion of native fish moderated by the Perth branch of the Australian & New Guinea Fishes Association
Just wondering if you have been to a monthly meet as yet? We cover all sorts of topics, some of the more recent ones have been -
tank building
discus (presented by Heiko Bleher) - http://www.perthcich...showtopic=24700
fish health
water chemistry
breeding catfish
aquarium plants
home-made fish food
As you can see they cover broad range of fish keeping areas not just cichlids
EDIT - also give http://www.aquariumlife.com.au a go if you haven't already done so. They're national but there's plenty of Perthies that have planted and community tanks there too.

Not to mention the auctions - Plenty of fish are up for grabs that are not cichlids.
If you use the forums on a regular basis then imo you should join as a club member to support the club, as without the membership fees then the forums would not exist.
Just my 2 cents.

Hey, I could be wrong. I frequently am! Haha.
Will think becoming a club member over. It's pretty cheap, and I have already made some great contacts in the industry, some of whom post and/or are sponsors. I would LOVE to attend meetings, but with 3 kids, and on a school night... yeah.

Come along for the next one if you can, It an auction, great start to the meetings and the club. And you always pick up a bargain or two.
I pay my membership as I like to support the club.
I think the meetings are a great way to meet new people and share some stories.
Hope to see you there.
Cheers

Nah the printing of cards, cutting, laminating, printing/folding member letters, printing of envelopes, adding stamps only uses up about half the time. The rest is spent updating the database and preparing the merge (which is used to fill out the fields on the cards and envelopes).
All done at the same time as getting distracted by the forum, chat room and girlfriend in my ear

if anyone spends more then $250 a year at ANY of the sponsors then membership here is worth it and helps support a local club that helps hobbyists in a large way and provides a support and help network.

Hey guys, Have you ever thought of joining but keep putting it off. DON'T. for just $25 a year even less when you buy a multiple year membership you get 10% off at all of our sponsors and a free raffle ticket at club meetings to win a great prize. Just think buying a new $400 tank you save $40 (saves you more than a 1 year membership) which can go towards even more great stuff. So stop putting it off and sign up today.
Cheers Cam
