Effective with your next renewal, the Cichlid Blues publication will only be available in PDF
format, which will be emailed to you. This is due to the rising costs of the publications and
most other fish club are moving to this format. The PCCA could raise dues but we feel that it
is better to try and cut costs. The cost of your dues (printed) does not cover the costs of the
publications. Please make sure that the PCCA has your emails address to receive the
Cichlid Blues. If your do not have email, copies of the Cichlid Blues will be available at the
General Membership meetings. Sorry for any inconvenience that this may cause. For
