  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
The only thing I saw with Brucki's post is helpful information. There was no attitude at all. Spence, I remember it very clearly how you were using a picture of Brucki's stewarti as an Avatar on another forum. You are still a snakehead rookie, and yet to breed your first snakehead. You know absolutely nothing about snakeheads. Unless you have something positive to contribute, please refrain from putting others down.

At what point to i put any one down?? at what point did i claim to know everything about snakeheads??

Also i wouldnt say i know absolutley nothing about them atall otherwise they would all probably be dead.

I always have positive thing to contribute, i have apologised to him for what was posted on the other forum in this thread or havent you read that yet??

Why have you targetted only me in this post??

The comment you just posted is clearly going to start a confrontation so why do it??
 
You know this is the "Internet" anyone can be anything they want, but sometimes it's really hard to trust someone who really wants to help you and knows what they are talking about vs. someone who doesn’t know anything but still wants to help somehow.
I'm talking about my own experience here.
I bought my first snakehead ever, it was purchased from a supplier that I know and was supposed to be a Channa Stewartii. But after posting pictures of the channa, some people (ex: Brucki and Tokyogasmask) told me that they were not Stewartii but Gachuas. Imagine my reaction, I called my supplier and he told me that they were Stewartiis so what is one suppose to? Believe someone from somewhere in a different country or your local guy?

But after getting some matting and some fry at around 4-5" long, I think that they were both right, they are Gachuas. And my local fish guy was told by his supplier that they were Stewartii so, who's to blame? Personally I don’t care because I like my Channa no matter what. Gachuas or Stewartiis I’m happy!

All of this to say that everyone is entitle to his or her opinion even if it's not the best of information. Sometimes it’s better to give personal experience that truly happened and fixed an issue or direct the person to a better source. But we now should know who is the "expert" on this forum, i sure know now.

My 2 Cents.
