It's funny how these threads come off as someone being so called "curious" and trying to ensure the safety or purity of the hobby. However, many times I see them as witch hunts, especially when it involves certain people. Over the many years that I've been involved in the hobby I have seen these types of threads come and go, yes people do have the right to ask questions and people have a right to answer or not. Would we like for all of our questions to be answered? Indeed, but if they are not, we have the right to either get involved with (in this case) the fish or not, so if your questions are not answered satisfactorily then move on, its just that simple. In this hobby if you stick around long enough you'll see many of these fish come and go. The ones that stick around have some type of value to someone for ex EBJD. A part of the hobby is about what the PEOPLE like, so if you like it, keep it. If you don't like it or your questions aren't answered then move on. In this episode of the witch hunt starring the new kid on the block, Ira, and the long time favorite DC.....lol s.o.s from the same old clicks/chicks. The thing thats funny to me when the question is asked, isn't this what the hobby is about? But when you have a noob to the hobby asking a question about a disease, parasite, fungus or a remedy for any simple problem, I dont see half the interest........ hummmm, just makes me wonder. 12 pages on this, 7 comments to a newby's question on how to deal with ich, we as experienced fish keepers should ALSO be interested in helping in that way as well. I guess thats not fun enough or the potential to throw flames at someone is not great enough. But isn't that what the hobby is suppose to be about? Getting new blood in the hobby to ensure its survival should be what we're about, not exposing or even trying to expose every so called new species. This is a joke!!!!!!
