We have adopted the term Business Partner to reflect our view on how we see our relationship with the business community - which is one of a combined effort to promote and grow the hobby of marine aquarium keeping in Australia in a sustainable and responsible way.

Overview
In addition to the General Business Forum(s) that are available to be used by all registered businesses we offer the option for our MASA Business Partners to have their own forum in the Business Forum section.
The creation of a new forum on RTAW Forums is not something that we undertake lightly and like forums in the other sections of RTAW such as the Aquaria Forums, Community Forums or the Trading Forums when we create a new forum we do so with the expectation that it will deliver incremental value to our registered users and to our forums overall.
To achieve this we offer two options for the creation and ongoing use of an individual Business Forum.
