Thought I’d just add that adding to this forum sharing with a community of passionate and knowledgeable people is very rewarding. Even if there are disagreements, the benefit of the information here outweighs any discomfort resulting from disagreements. If you are interested, you will learn more than you realise if you keep an open mind.
I like to post on the progress of my paros and I like to read about the paros kept by other. Like Helene said, it’s simply love for these fish. Whether kept in my aquarium, your aquarium or left surviving in their natural habitat.
Please don’t feel that your opinion is less valid that others, and it’ll be a great shame if your paros were “lost” to the rest of us.
