Dachende Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 How is that a screwed up attitude ? Is it any different to cross breeding dogs or cats ? I apologise if I'm being ignorant or dumb , I don't know a lot about hybrids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamH Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Cross breeding dogs and cats is controversial too, but fish are worse as usually they are of different species not just different variants of the same species as with cats and dogs. Look at Jaxxnz's history of fish keeping too, it's appalling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 This is a polite and friendly reminder to word your opinions in as objective a manner as you are able, and to keep the personal insults out of it. And for those who are interested in hybrids please do not bait the members who have a problem with it. With any luck we might be able to have a discussion that doesn't degenerate into bickering and sniping. 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F15hguy Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Is it any different to cross breeding dogs or cats ? I don't see anything controversial here... IMO, if he wants to good on him, I won't buy them and as long as he doesn't try selling them as pure strains of something, then it isn't going to affect anyone.

wee2 Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Jack is only trying to tell us what he is doing and sharing the experience of cross-breeding. for people who are not interested at it, you should not be involved and you are not forced to add comments onto the thread. For each post, I would suggest to have people who have same interests to share the topic. For people who have opposite opinions, you are more than welcome join here and leave your comments about how you think about 'hybrid'. 'BAD!' or 'You should be banned' shud not be used in this friendly forum. and it is not very nice. we should treat all members who bring different topics, or bizzare topics, OR the topics you may not like, fairly. personally I will suggest a female Cuban to creat more little Cubans :happy2: David used to have one but dont know where it went..

Fruju Posted September 6, 2012 Report Share Posted September 6, 2012 I don't think he should be grilled for making a hybrid, too many people high on their horses about 'purity', so long as the species isn't going extinct I don't think its really a biggie in the nz fish hobby. But yea, makes more sense to mate it with another cuban as the crosses won't look that amazing I don't think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix44 Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 What sickening attitudes on here. He's keeping the fish well and takes care of them too. Are you guys going to police everyone on here? Real good way to scare people off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hovmoller Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 He's keeping the fish well and takes care of them too In which alternate universe is this true? I don't think you have all the facts here. Real good way to scare people off. We should be so lucky.

Caryl Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 This is Jaxxnz remember? He does this to create just the reactions he has got! I believe the advice in this situation is "Don't feed the troll" :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real good way to scare people off. people are allowed their own opinions, if anyone voicing them scares someone off they really need to harden up the world is PC enough as it is. btw, I don't think anyone will scare Jaxx off....

Jaide Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 I was thinking about crossing my T-Bar with my pink convict. They're both Central American cichlids and very closely related but I guess cross-breeding is a no no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
