Announcing a New Aquarium Magazine

[jamesw]

Hi Folks,

www.advancedaquarist.com

We are pleased to announce a new magazine dedicated to furthering the aquarium hobby. This publication will be a joint venture between reefs.org and Terry Siegel - founder of Aquarium Frontiers. In keeping with the strict standards of accuracy and fact-checking Terry Siegel brought to Aquarium Frontiers, Craig Bingman has again been enlisted as the magazine's Science Editor. Many of the leading contributors to Aquarium Frontiers whose work has been sadly missed since that periodical ceased publication will be authoring material for Advanced Aquarist's Magazine Online. You can also expect to see material from many other new leading authors and hobbyists.

The magazine will be published on the web under the auspices of reefs.org and supported through advertising sponsors. The magazine will be open to everyone, to the betterment of the hobby as a whole. Advertisers interested in having their materials run in Advanced Aquarist's Magazine Online should contact Terry Siegel at [email protected]

Here! Here! Hooray!

Sounds great!

I wonder though.

I feel strongly that there is an opportunity for a fist class print magazine in this hobby also. All the mags I see are so advertising heavy with poor to good images only.
I recently started a subscription to Fauna- fist class! Excellent photography, simple advertising, it was like National Geographic with a focus on animal life- all kinds, not just mammals. Unfortunately, they publish in NYC and have had problems with staff a publishing since 9/11- but that is another story.

I will be looking forward to a Web-based mag sponsored by Reefs.org (this place has helped me a lot). I would look even more forward to a tasteful periodical about ocean life, conservation, and marine aquarium husbandry.

Good luck!

Dave D.

If you liked Aquarium Frontiers, you are going to LOVE Advanced Aquarist! I promise...
