People get what they see. The good side to that: if they are introduced to higher quality fish, they will demand them. The bad side to that: if they only know of the mass chain livebearers, they will settle for that (or get out of the hobby).
I'm sure there are many creative ways, but I think this is a primary aim (or should be) of most fish clubs: to introduce the GOOD side of the hobby to the public. It isn't easy, but it isn't hopeless.
{That was optimistic me speaking. In truth I am rather a cynic, so I tend to side more on the hopeless tip. But then, my (new) membership in the ALA would betray me as more of a softie than I pose as. ;) }
