MASNA’s educational efforts spawned a number of high quality articles in 2016, such as “The Power of Palytoxin.” These are now available for local printing to increase awareness.
New downloadable and printable versions of the MASNA Educational Series articles

In 2016, MASNA introduced five new educational articles that spanned a variety of topics of concern and interest to marine aquarists around the world.
Now, in an effort to better spread these educational articles, MASNA introduces the same articles, now in an interactive PDF version!
These new PDF versions are free to download, print, and distribute. They are great to have on hand in case of emergency, share with your local club members, have available at your next club meeting or frag swap, or to have available at your LFS for your customers to read and learn about.
The PDF versions of the articles can be found at the top right of each of the five educational articles at the links below.

- Lionfish in the Atlantic and Caribbean: masna.org/masna-programs/lionfish-education/

Additionally, all five PDF versions can be downloaded at once as a zip file by clicking here: https://goo.gl/1QZdcT
MASNA will have printed copies of these articles available at their booth at conferences and swaps around North America. Printed copies are also available in limited quantities to be sent to MASNA Speaks events.
