>Hi folks, > >very interesting thread. But forgive me I don't know what means BAP. > >Thomas > Thomas, BAP is the acronym for Breeder's Award Program. Most local fish clubs in the U.S. have one. In the BAP programs I'm familiar with, participants gain points for breeding fish (points depend on difficulty of breeding and rarity of fish in the hobby), contributing fry to the club auction,writing a spawning report, taking photos. Basically, adds a competitive dimension to fish keeping. Competition is of course, the American way. - - Steve
