[quote=”Bernd Bussler” post=4243]So this idea I do not think so good, that has something more of a sales platform. We want to reach the seriously want to breed, not the ones that sell the animals for “lot of money”, [/quote]

No, Bernd, I think you got the aims of those who propagate the possibility to offer their offspring here at the forum completely wrong.
It really offends me to read your assumption that we want to “sell the animals for a lot of money” to whomever. Fact is that some have a real lot of young paros – and no one is ever contacted via the project’s distribution to give some of their paro offspring to interested persons. And the other way round – in my experience it is not very effective to try to get paro offspring of other members via the distribution service. So the idea is to reach those paro enthusiasts ourselves – to offer what can be given away via the project, at the same prices which are agreed for the forum – 15 €/pair. And to maybe find someone who is willing to give away some of his offspring to members of the forum. I am really annoyed by your assumption that this is a way to make money using a selling platform!

I personally put the aims of the project in question – just because I experience myself and hear from others that we happily breed paros – to at last sit there with a lot of offspring and no interested persons. And we do not breed paros to have lots of offspring in crowded tanks, do we?
So – what’s wrong with saying what paro species you could give away – only here, in the forum, only readable for members? If this leads to a better distribution of young fish between the members of the forum – well, that’s one of the aims of the project, isn’t it?
I really don’t like to be addressed as someone who randomly distributes valuable fish to make “lots of money” – just making a suggestion to better distribute our offspring within the project.
