For those of you who receive the Freshwater and Marine Aquarium (FAMA) Magazine you won’t any longer. According to our very reliable sources FAMA will cease to exist. The June 2010 issue will be the final issue of Freshwater and Marine Aquarium (FAMA) as a stand-alone magazine. Apparently BowTie, Inc is combining FAMA into Aquarium Fish International (AFI). Before this change BowTie, Inc. had 4 different magazines for the aquarium market. A part from the dwindling sales of print media publications this was a no-brainer and probably should have happened sooner. After the change they will have 3 aquarium print magazine publications. We wouldn’t be surprised if that gets trimmed down again if readers continue to stop reading print magazines. This is yet another print magazine that has bit the dust. And hopefully the last.
Freshwater and Marine Aquarium Magazine (FAMA) is dead
