Why Join Us?

Joining the American Medaka Association (AMA) means becoming part of a community that values integrity, education, and the preservation of true medaka strains.

What Makes AMA Different

  • Non-Commercial Purpose: We are not a sales-driven organization. AMA exists to protect and guide the medaka community in the U.S.
  • Focus on Traceability: We verify creators, origin, and stabilization of strains to prevent misinformation and dilution.
  • Ethical Standards: No egg sales. We believe in long-term stability, health, and respect for each line.
  • Supportive Community: Members are encouraged to share knowledge, help each other, and grow together—without competition.
  • Recognition: Eligible members may be listed publicly as AMA-certified breeders.

Make a Difference

Whether you’re new to medaka or a seasoned breeder, your voice matters. By joining AMA, you help shape a more ethical, transparent, and unified medaka culture across the country.

Membership is free. All you need is a shared passion and a willingness to uphold our core values.
