This award is presented to recognize competency in the breeding of fish. All spawnings are subject to review by the BAP committee and may be denied if deemed unacceptable. Decisions of the BAP committee are final. It is the breeder's responsibility to see that the requirements are met and properly credited. Color or finnage variations do not constitute a different species.
Verifiable points are transferable from and to other aquarium societies.
In addition to the regular awards, a Chairpersons Award may be presented for outstanding achievement in the breeding of fish. No member may be involved on a vote for a deviation in points on the member's own spawn.
