This committee is responsible
for defining the standards that
will be the initial focus of the
society. It is our hope that
these standards will help to
avoid the widespread use of
"cute" or "catchy" names for
Angelfish phenotypes which seem
to proliferate in the names of
other species, and serve only to
confuse the novice Angelfish
enthusiast. We will also be
focused on setting standards for
identifying the genotypes of the
Angelfish we breed and keep, and
the genetic notations used to
describe them. |
