This and other topics have been proposed in the past for consideration to add to the group of areas. It has been determined that generally there is not enough interest. Few of our members are serious breeders. Those that are or those that want to be tend to post in already existing areas. Including of the moderators here.

Thanks, I couldn't find any history of it being ask before. It seems like there has been a good amount of new people signing on and I was hopefull that it might just be possible to get a breeder board up by asking. I was also hopefull that non-breeders would express an interest in having access to info and help.

I was always told the only way to get info is to ask questions Wink

Also, someone recently asked for a catfish forum and Marcos replied with:

Thanks, I guess I frased my search poorly I looked For "Breeding Board" Not "Forum" I did go through several posts and didn't see anything remotely close. Though I was mostly checking the subject lines. Embarassed

Well, I for one would love a breeding forum. There, I said it.
Everything breeds, and it's not always easy, so there should be some interest. Heck, the livebearer forums alone raise an amazing number of posts, and they're just livebearers. Fish-KEEPERS breed their fish, and such a forum would be useful for converting the havers into keepers, I would think. There's lots of ripe subjects like conditioning and triggers and fry feeding and whatnot to keep things lively, and since most boards just lump breeding in with fish, a breeding forum would be fairly unusual.

DM I'm not sure that having each species limited to a thread would work out. For example two people want to know about breeding a fish. One wants to do so in a display tank(because that is their only tank) and another is setting up a tank just for breeding. I think setting up a breeding tank will have enough variation in tank size, filtration maintenance options etc that it would warrant not having a cookie cutter setup. just my 2 cents though...take it for what its worth Laughing

I actually agree with DM, doesn't matter how you are going to breed said species, all info on breeding be it for show or profit or just because can be put into one thread, so everyone can pick and choose methods. If there is soemthing not covered all it needs to be done is appended.

I agree with TOS, DM, and Huntress. If each general type had its own section it Should work. I just realy want a specific place to ask questions Very Happy

I would very much like it if, I had a good way to find out answers to all my breeding questions. So far I'm trying to learn about goldfish(not too hard I know but still Confused

), glass catfish, and will soon be looking for info on Rams. which is kinda why I asked. so far all I can find is scattered info from people who may or may not have real life exp.

Besides like TOS said its what Fish-Keepers would be interested in Wink

Thanks for speaking up ya'll
