Introduction
The Greater Detroit Aquarium Society has adopted the following
Aquatic Horticultural Award Program to encourage members to
keep and propagate a wider variety of aquatic plants and to
share with others the knowledge they have gained. The program
is open to all members and there is no time limit on
propagating a particular aquatic plant. You proceed at your
own pace. Awards are given as detailed in the rules. To get
started, all you need is an aquatic plant, something to
propagate it in, and a short report to fill out. Read the rules
that follow and you are on your way.
Purpose:
To promote the keeping and propagating of aquatic plants.
To recognize outstanding achievement in the growing and
propagating of these plants.
To gather information and knowledge of aquatic plants and
their requirements, with the additional bonus of having
more beautiful aquariums.
To identify new aquatic plant species and to determine
conditions necessary for their care in the aquarium.
To make accounts of successful growing and propagating
techniques available to Tropic Tank Talk and to the
membership at general meetings.
