nah.. guess "we" are just a bunch of guys and gals with too much money to spend on unusual and big monster fish.. founded in 05..
"we" have grown quite a bit since then.. I was just as amazed as you were when I first became a member.. this is as good as it gets, if there is no info on here, that just means NO ONE has ever tried it.. a new world opened up when I came on here, many LFS's had never heard of the fish I tried to order.. with time I found more and more people from my region of the world but thought I was pretty much alone when I started..

so I'm with op, we are f'n awesome!
Sums it up nicely.
 
not a single better place to get advice from real people who really keep monster fish. most have worked there way up. i started with a group of assorted ciclids and moved up to rays dats and pbass.

not many "experts" but its hard to tell that with the amount and amazing information you get.

just have thick skin and take the BS with a grain of salt. there will be flamers and there will be people that will feel like a crappy person. but when you have this many people who all think there way is the only way... thats what your going to get. just keep that in mind

That too.I dont go onto any other online forum, I might lurk on a gun site here and there but thats it.
 
Dont make the mistake i did when i first join. i was a complete ass to everyone and acted like i knew all....well how stupid was i huh? lol well anyway as long as you respect others and dont be an ass (like i was :P) then this will be a great site for you to learn about TRUE MONSTER FISH!!! ha welcome to MFK dude

Then how do you define "expert"? I'd say there are quite a few people here who know a thing or two and have been in the hobby for a little while ;) But maybe you mean that at the end, we're all here to learn and share, no matter what level. That's absolutely true. Even oldies can still pick up some great info on this site.

Either way, /\/\FK is legendary :thumbsup:

im talking about "ichthyologist" expert ... we are the people who do this as a hobby or business but few if any are TRUE experts

that and ... anyone who claims to know everything about anything typically is a fool
 
This is a good forum... just wish some members have respect for others
 
Yup. Welcome to MFK.
This is a site that has over 50.000 member, that means 12.500 members each year. Yes Neo the master runs all three forums as mentioned before and has also put up another site about his fish, neoprodigy.com.
There are a lot of fish experts here that know a little more than a thing or two about keeping fish, Neo, Lupin, Red Devil, Anne, Cohazard, KingEl, Koji, Xander, greenterra and lots lots more.
 
nobody wants to touch the history? is there an insta-ban function about what used to be, and the great divide? I know it's almost a swear word to mention the "other" site
