APC's mission is to provide a premiere place for the exchange of information regarding the planted aquarium hobby and to promote the hobby to others. The purpose of the For Sale and Trade forum is for our members to have an avenue to buy, sell and trade plants, livestock and aquarium-related items to other forum members.

To further this goal, we have created some amendments to the For Sale and Trade forum rules. Highlights of these changes:

- Members posting in the For Sale or Trade forums are expected to be active, participating members prior to posting.
- No commercial businesses regardless of size are permitted to post in the For Sale or Trade Forum. Advertising options are available at convenient pricing for interested businesses.
- Purchasing of goods with the intent to re-sell them on the forum is not allowed.

These are changes the staff at APC feel will provide a more user-friendly environment for members to buy or sell their items. It also promotes further discussion on the forum regarding our hobby.

If the staff feels these rules are not met, we will send a friendly reminder to the member with the expectation that the member will amend the situation. If the member does not satisfactorily fix the problem, the thread may be closed and the member may receive an infraction. An infraction involves temporary loss of privileges on the forum. Multiple infractions can lead to permanent banning from the website.

Again, the purpose of the changes is to make APC a better place for you, our members. The participation of the membership of APC is what makes this website what it is. We need your help to make APC a great forum!
