hovmoller Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Since i am quite new around here I have just discovered the fishkeepers forum site and when I looked through some of the posts it seemed that all the usual suspects that post on this site are also over there. So what's the story? why are there two forums and does everyone just follow both? (+ MFK for many I guess) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanjury Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 I follow both They are both NZ based forums to help people who keep fish/reptiles.. This one is associated (and ran by) the national fish keeping body in NZ (FNZAS) and the other is privately run, most people are members of and post on both sites.

SamH Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Yeah, I am on both too. Follow a few other aquarium forums and other forums about my other hobbies and interests. You will come to find that different forums have different populations, styles and people, some people suit certain forums better than others.

Ira Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 I think I have an account on the other one, but it was so slow when I looked I decided there wasn't any point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 I think we have a couple of NZ based marine sites too that some are members of as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrie Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 I use to visit but there was hardly any interest in killis and with limited time available, I got out of the habit I have nothing at all against either site but with this one being the message board and main discussion forum for the fed, I spend the time here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David R Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 So what's the story? why are there two forums Politics. This one is much longer established and has more posts, the other one is more relaxed with things like topics [politics etc], language, image size etc...

phoenix44 Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 FNZAS forums have a lot more people, posts, etc etc.. FK members are all here; and the most active ones on there certainly are active here. You don't have to choose between one or the other, each site has its pros.
