How did you find the site when you first discovered it? I.E. Did it seem
well layed out?

Did you find what you were looking for in the subforums? I.E. Was there
useful information from previously answered questions?

was wrong with him and then i posted to get replies directly for my situation.

And finally, do you think anything could be added to the forum to make
it easier to navigate, or any extra information, if anything?

friendly
idk... i thot it was very easy to navigate around
idk- i know u have that link pinned that has the disease list on their site? i
found that usefull being pinnned... so other than that, not sure... maybe a pinned ideal tank for
bettas... i was reading that thread and there are a lot of different opinions...but perhaps one
pinned with the mod/admin opinion.
another good thing about a lot of members, is that if a question is asked and
someone replying gives bad advice, there are enough members giving good advice that the bad
advice doesn't have an effect.

Are you asking for our feedback CM?

**Shaggy** · 10-31-2005, 12:17 AM

What is this CM?

**Cichlid Man** · 10-31-2005, 03:41 AM

This is the part of the feedback forum where I ask new members questions, (give them a survey) if they wish so we can see where we can improve certain areas of the forum. However if anyone wishes to answer those three questions who isn't a new member, then be my guest.

This site's URL is a hit; one day I typed aquariumforums.com. When that did not turn up good, I typed fishforums.com. When I saw this site, I knew I had found the internet version of heaven. I signed up immediately and I could see the difference in my aquariums.
The layout is fab, the sub-forum topics are appropriate, everything seemed planned, and everyone is willing to help you out. I love this forum and always will!

Found it on Google in 01.

Was helpful but not real active. So could take a day to get an answer.

Today's version is much too busy for my taste. Way to many bells and whistles that I find make it harder to use the site rather than easier or better. But then I am older than most of the membership and I prefer simple fast and above all straigtforward with most of the emphasis on fish related stuff.

I like this site.

It is somewhat slow but the answers are most of the time very worth the wait.

Some places like waterwolves give you very quick responses but it seems like they don't really have time for your question or don't care.

Here you get very good responses and they take they're time to tell you whatever they know.

i found this site at AquaRank. the people here seemed nice so i signed up. it turns out some of my friends signed up also and they said that they got really helpful responses to their questions.

BIT01 · 06-18-2006, 04:31 PM

I was reccomended and I kind of need to get used to the layout. I'm used to phpbb2. The server seems a little sluggish in my opinion.. People here are friendly though.

Durbkat · 06-19-2006, 03:49 PM

I really like this site and I like how the rules are laid back to where people can enjoy themselves without worrying about breaking a rule and I like how we can advertise our forums in our sigs. But what I don't like is 1 or two mods that come to chat and seem to pick on me for no reason but other than that I really like this forum!

I found the site hunting down Rich Christman (we miss you here Rich).

I keep a successful community of fish in a 4 foot tank including the following families: Cichlids, tetras, loaches, gouramis, barbs, rainbows, livebearers, killiefish, catfish, puffers.
