Membership Benefits
Benefits of a Paid CCA Membership – Membership Has Privileges!
Membership supports access to our monthly meetings, which feature national and international experts on Cichlid fish conservation, aquarium care, and related topics, as well as local speakers.
Monthly meetings include a mini-auction and while anyone can buy or sell, only sellers that are members receive a 75% commission on sales. Non members do not receive a commission.
Make a ton of friends who share your passion! Join us for every meeting, where you'll experience a Cichlid convention-like environment with snacks, drinks, and other refreshments, along with a fish auction and raffles.
Enjoy a 10% discount at some local fish/aquarium stores (just remember to present your valid CCA card!).
Exclusive social events, including:
Summer BBQ
December Holiday Party
Collecting Trips & Fish Breeder Trips
Access to the members-only section of the forum.
Participation & eligibility in CCA-sponsored group buys (CCA covers shipping costs—your savings on shipping alone will more than cover a year-long CCA membership!).
CCA-sponsored group buys several times a year from various sources, often with exclusive discounts—there's always a great deal to be found!

Was doing a water change and the Leiarius pictus catfish came out to say hello. Currently, this fish is about 14” from tip to tail. It’s an impressive fish to see out cruising. It’s barbells fling around like a Kraken.
Other tank mates include two wild caught Mouthbrooding severums (~6”), a Lima shovelnose (~8”), and a fat raphael catfish.
