Welcome to the official FBAS Website

'the most informative and laid out site, with so much information'

Now in its 86th year, the FBAS is the UK's largest, non-profit making fishkeeping body.
This site will tell you all about us and what we do.

But we want to hear from you too: if you have any fishkeeping problems or queries we're here to help , but if you're in the middle of a successful period with your fish then why not share the good news with us too?

Feel free to browse our site - use the SITE DIRECTORY (left) - and, if you wish, get in touch with us directly by or by contacting the relevant FBAS Officer by using the button.

FBAS STOP PRESS NEWS:

Latest Marinews
Yesterday our good friend and STAMPS Chairman Mr Albert King
died in what would have been his 86th year. Albert did a lot for the hobby in many, many ways over the years and I'm proud to say he was my friend. I didn't know Albert was even ill, but that is a
sign of life at the moment, the last 4 years have been horrible, not knowing what is happening outside our own home, just hoping everyone is coping.
STAMPS like almost every club now exists in name only. The cost of insurance for
a single event now is £200 per day, that is if you can find Judges, Show people willing to travel and people willing to help, young people don't want to know.
Scottish Federations and Shows are all gone, YAAS are like us, the one Show last year was Ryedale who, for various reasons, could only have 10 Classes with one Judge -
I admire their resilience not to give in. Please take care, if I can help – just ask.
Regards Bede.
