Educating Aquarists<br />
Since 1911<br />
Welcome to the<br />
Breeders Award Program<br />
of the<br />
<strong>Brooklyn</strong> <strong>Aquarium</strong> <strong>Society</strong><br />
Through the BAP, we measure our advancement as aquarists as we<br />
gain the necessary knowledge and skill to allow the species we<br />
keep to reproduce.<br />
Our purposes are to encourage more participation among the<br />
members of our club, to recognize outstanding achievements, and to<br />
share knowledge of breeding techniques.<br />
This is a noncompetitive program which recognizes all members<br />
equally according to their ability and willingness to experiment, without<br />
regard to the size of setup or any time limits. All points earned are<br />
cumulative over an indefinite period of time.<br />
2

BREEDER OF THE YEAR AWARD<br />
• An annual award that is presented to the hobbyist who has bred the most fish, plants<br />
and/or coral propagation and, in the view of the BAP committee, has demonstrated a<br />
devotion to the expanding of the species through generosity, patience and support of the<br />
club. Examples are donating fry to other members, help and support to other breeders and<br />
support to the <strong>BAS</strong>. The BAP chairperson reserves the right not to present this award if it is<br />
believed that no one person has shown the qualities and characteristics that set them apart<br />
from other hobbyists.<br />
7
CLAIMING POINTS<br />
• When you have spawned your fish, they must be “witnessed”; that is, a member of the<br />
Breeder Award Program will come to your home to inspect the fry and parents and verify<br />
the species within 7 days of the time they become free swimming. A committee member will<br />
revisit to verify the fry are alive 60 days after free swimming or fry may be brought to a club<br />
meeting after 60 days.<br />
• A minimum of six (6) fry will be considered a spawn, if maintained for 60 days. Special<br />
consideration will be given to fish that are less prolific and to Junior members, upon request<br />
of the breeder to the committee, to waive the six (6) fish minimum.<br />
• Marine fish will be 20 point fish if the fry are free swimming for 30 days.<br />
• Corals and plants <strong>–</strong> a committee member must be notified immediately and the committee<br />
member must inspect the “cutting” within 7 days. The “cutting” must be re-visited to<br />
determine reasonable growth within 60 days of original viewing. Floating plants; by doubling<br />
the amount; bunch plants, by doubling the number of rooted growing stems; runner or divided<br />
plants must have one healthy plant capable of living independently. Sexual reproduction: the<br />
flowerings must be identified in full bloom attached to the parent plant. For seeded plants,<br />
there must be a healthy seedling sufficiently developed to be identified as the offspring of the<br />
parent plant.<br />
• Plants must have a viable offspring or grow offshoots that develop root systems. Acceptable<br />
methods are by cuttings, offshoots, runners, or plantlets that develop their own root systems<br />
and can survive on their own, flowering or seed production, and by flower pollination from<br />
the members own plant.<br />
• All requirements must be completed within 4 months after a BAP committee person<br />
witnessed breeding. If not completed, the spawn is not eligible for the BAP.<br />
• You must be a member in good standing with <strong>BAS</strong>.<br />
• Points may be obtained only once per species of fish/coral invertebrate/plant. If a fish<br />
has been reclassified under a different scientific name, it will not count as a new species.<br />
Color variations do not count as a separate species. Different Latin name counts as a different<br />
species. Examples are Discus [Symphysodon aequifasciatus “Pigeon Blood” and Symphysodon<br />
aequifasciatus “Gold Dragon” only one counts. Corydoras metae and Corydoras melini are<br />
different species (different last names), thus both count.<br />
• Points may be awarded to families or couples and to individuals, but not to both.<br />
• It is the breeder’s responsibility to complete all necessary forms, verify that the forms<br />
are submitted, the proper points are recorded and that the spawns are verified.<br />
• Partnerships on points or family membership in Breeders Award Program: the points will<br />
only be awarded to the family group or to one (1) member.<br />
8
ASSIGNING & CHALLENGING POINTS<br />
• Species not listed that an aquarist is planning to spawn should be brought to the Chairperson’s<br />
attention. The Chairperson will present the specifics to the committee for discussion.<br />
The committee, by majority vote, will assign points.<br />
• It is recognized that new discoveries, new importations of fish, published documents, etc.<br />
can all change the value of breeding a specific species. Points may therefore be reviewed and<br />
changed periodically by the committee, by majority vote, and the findings and changes will<br />
be publicized in the club journal “Aquatica.”<br />
• If the number of points is changed on a species, this point value will go into effect<br />
immediately. When points are reclassified, the points shall not be applied to previously<br />
earned points.<br />
• Breeder Award Program year will start in September and end at July Board meeting.<br />
Spawns for July and August will be recognized in September.<br />
• If a member has a lapse in membership, the former club member’s points will be reinstated<br />
depending on the availability of records. During the period of time the person was not a<br />
member, those spawns will not count for points; points will start again upon the person<br />
becoming a member in good standing.<br />
• The BAP committee has the right to extend any time and/or date limits.<br />
THE ASSIGNING OF POINTS RATIONALE IS AS FOLLOWS:<br />
1) Fish, coral invertebrate, plant type<br />
2) Water chemistry, lighting, temperature<br />
3) Feeding requirements<br />
4) Difficulty in spawning<br />
5) Difficulty in raising fry<br />
5 points - species that can basically breed over a wide range of conditions, all by themselves.<br />
Examples: guppy and platy.<br />
10 points - species that can be bred easily, given specific conditions, which are not too<br />
exacting. Examples: barbs which breed easily when conditioned properly, zebras when<br />
conditioned and given low water level and a marble bottomed tank or African mbuna which<br />
breed easily given alkaline water, good food and some measure of protection<br />
against aggression.<br />
15 points - those species which may present moderate problems in one or more of the<br />
following areas: aggressive behavior, water chemistry, specific diet requirements, mate selection<br />
or sexing, poor physical stamina or disease resistance, special tank setup requirements, special<br />
care for fry. Example: Angelfish- may present a sexing problem, have an aggressive nature,<br />
and can present a problem providing proper brood care.<br />
20 points - those fish that have not been bred, bred only very rarely, or are very difficult to<br />
breed based on the severity of the problems mentioned above. Examples: Black Ghost fish,<br />
Neons, and all marine species.<br />
9
BREEDERS AWARD COMMITTEE<br />
• The Breeders Award Committee will consist of a chairperson and an even number of other<br />
members. The chairperson and the members shall be approved and appointed by the Board<br />
of Directors.<br />
• The duties of the committee shall be to witness spawning and cuttings, keep official<br />
records and point totals, report to the Board when necessary, publicize the activities of the<br />
committee and those persons spawning fish in the club journal, order certificates and awards<br />
as needed, and make the necessary presentations at meetings.<br />
• As soon as your fish spawn, plant or coral reproduce call/email:<br />

We must thank the following persons and groups for their direct and indirect help<br />
in the creation, shaping and completion of this manual. We believe that this is the<br />
first manual to address all areas of the aquatic hobbyist’s pursuits and pleasures:<br />
freshwater fish, marine fish, corals, invertebrates and plants. It is hoped that both<br />
individuals and clubs will use and share this manual for the promotion of breeding and<br />
propagation of aquatic life in their personal environments.<br />
