Default Merging Catfish Forum into General Freshwater Forum

Hi Guys,

Admin informed me that this sub forum is pretty quiet with little activities.

I suggested to them to keep it since catfish is one of the major species of freshwater fishes in aquatic scene.

Nonetheless, should the admin decides to go with it, we have to respect that as well.

I shall open up to the floor for views if we should merge it.

Cheers

best is of course to keep it a s a sub section on its own.
otherwise if really no choice must merge, then maybe Stingrays and Bottom Dwellers is a better option?
and once merged, possible for it to be subsection within wherever it is merging into? (eg: like African Cichlid being a sub section in Cichlids section)

I do agree on the above, since catfishes are "Bottom Dwellers".

rather than suggesting where to merge to, why not look at the root cause of lesser traffics and activities? Perhaps the new PCS can lead this. just my 2 cents.

Agreed with above bros...YM as well as Canopy.

1) YM >> Subsections

2) Canopy >> Look for ways to improve.

Personally we can try (2) first and if still quiet, then no choice go for (1)

From my point of view.....as an amateur pleco keeper for 2 years but quite active in AF forum, it boils down to those old birds to keep sharing their experiences and thoughts in AF to create sustainable interest for amateurs/beginners.....ofc only if these shifus are willing and not so busy.

Just to clarify, "IF" were to merge " Bottom Dwellers " should be the section.

I think the past thread is still there. The only display 1 week ago changes. Just go to the screen at the catfish thread and scroll down. Select more than 1 yr or even from beginning. They are still there.

Yes. it works.
But i have to manually click that option every time i go into catfish forum.
For those that do not know like me will be disappointed to see the forum empty.

Can admin do something abt it?

Other sections of the forum don't have this issue.
