Sacramento Aquarium Society

Bringing Aquarium Hobbyists of the Greater Sacramento Valley Together Since 1952

Welcome

The Sacramento Aquarium Society (SAS) is a local fish club that meets at 7:00 pm on the first Saturday of each month.   We are a non-profit organization  with an objective to encourage and further the interest of the care and breeding of tropical fish and to promote the exchange of information between amateur aquarists.  Meetings typically include a guest speaker, bowl show, raffle, attendance prize, and an auction which includes fish, aquatic plants, and aquarium supplies. Many of the auction items go for less than wholesale prices.

Next Meeting Saturday, June 7th

Program:

"MEGA AUCTION"

OPEN TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC!  You do not have to be a member of SAS to participate.  See Rules.

Meetings start at 7pm.  Click here for driving directions.   Family fun - kids welcome!

New Look for Web Site in 2008

The web site has been updated with a new header graphic of a Amano style planted aquarium taken at Aqua Forrest Aquarium in San Francisco.  The web site now has a 3D border and colored columns on the right and left of the content.

Free Ammonia-Nitrogen Calculator & Information Link

A link has been added to the "Hobby Links" page for Professor James Alleman's "Free Ammonia-Nitrogen Calculator & Information" web page.  This is a great tool for finding out how much of your ammonia reading is actually toxic free ammonia (NH3).

Water Change Calculator

The "Water Change Calculator" has been uploaded to the web site and can be found on the "Downloads" web page in the "Members Only" section of the site.

"Members Only" Web Pages

The new Members Only section is available to members of the Sacramento Aquarium Society.  It currently contains articles, current and past digital issues of the Tropical News newsletter,  email addresses for club members, contact information for club officers and committee chairs, a list of sales table products, and  Board of Directors meeting schedule.
