The Raleigh Aquarium Society (RAS) was founded in 1981 to encourage and enhance the education, knowledge, and enjoyment of Society members at all levels of experience about the many aspects of the home aquatics hobby. We welcome participants at all levels of experience (including none - we all started that way!)

Upcoming Events

• Saturday Nov 7 @ 1:00 (doors open at 12:30) at the NCSU Vet School library. Join us on Saturday, November 7 at 1:00 for a presentation by Blong Yang. He has been keeping and breeding fish throughout his life. He began focusing on white cloud mountain minnows in 2006 and has had interesting results with them, rainbow shiners, and other species. His interests include collecting fish data from both natural streams and home aquariums, and he enjoys developing interesting lines of quality fish. Blong will discuss breeding for trait selection and how these techniques can be applied to any fish species, sharing practical insights with our aquarium community. Join us for an afternoon of fishkeeping knowledge, breeding insights, and great conversation!Note: we will not have our usual monthly auction, so save your items for the big Nov 14 auction.
