Preservation Program The purpose of the ACA C.A.R.E.S. Preservation Program is to encourage hobbyists worldwide to devote tank space to one or more species-at-risk, while forming an information network between aquarists, scientists and conservationists. The ACA C.A.R.E.S. Preservation Program has Four Major Objectives 1) To bring AWARENESS to the critical situation of our fish in nature For further information, please contact Claudia at ivyrose@optonline.net For the ACA CARES Discussion Forum, please visit: http://cichlid.ipbhost.com We look forward to adding your name to the growing list! I am certain that with your help we can obtain our goal of placing every species on the list into at least one of your tanks! ...and then to learn that your species is herding a group of fry around the tank..... The C.A.R.E.S. Conservation Program is about our fish, and it is about people. We are one team, working together. Please, clear a tank ~ save a fish! We can and we will make a difference!
