Aquarium and Terrarium Association of the University of Montpellier (AATUM)

Activities and objectives of the association

The AATUM association aims to promote aquarium and terrarium keeping among university members, thereby raising public awareness of unusual animals and teaching people how to care for them and keep them in the most respectful conditions possible.

More broadly, it helps promote biodiversity that is sometimes overlooked within the university. It broadens scientific knowledge and critical thinking about aquarium and terrarium maintenance. Its inhabitants are numerous and diverse: on the aquarium side, there are fish, amphibians, and turtles; on the terrarium side, there are insects, lizards, and snakes.

The association is open to both enthusiasts and beginners; everyone is welcome to contribute.
