Hobbit Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Has anyone created a fish education week? I would love to have an excuse to post things like “goldfish DO grow past the size of their tank” and “bettas need at least 5 gallons and a heater” on my social media. I could just post it on my own, but if I can say, “It’s fish education week!” I would seem less snobby. XD If there isn’t one, maybe @Cory and @Chrissy and the other fishtubers can choose one? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pookies Aquatics Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 I have never heard of a fish education week. I hope someone creates one though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PotatoFish Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Through a quick skimming of the forum, I did not find one. However, every time there is a livestream, Cory answers all sorts of fish-related questions, does a bit of fishy mythbusting, and brings up fantastic new topics. Perhaps you could comb through the forum and respond to old posts about topics that match the bit of information you wish to share. In one search function, "sort by recently updated," it would drive that post to the top of the list. I think it would be good to have a lengthy discussion attached to an older post.

Hobbit Posted November 17, 2020 Author Share Posted November 17, 2020 Yeah, every week is fish education week for Cory and Chris! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenFins Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 hmm... No I don't think so but its a great idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GardenStateGoldfish Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 There is shark week which I love, but in my opinion every week should be fish education week, the internet does not have enough content I need more rabbit hole to fall into. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissy Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 This is a great idea! I would imagine it may take a while to actually implement it. Also, there are fishkeepers on this forum with 20x more experience than myself, I would love for them to teach and I think we would all benefit more from that! 🤣 I'm still quite the novice myself with a lot to learn. Have you guys checked out https://www.youtube.com/user/CorvusOscen He's a wealth of knowledge and his fish tanks are way out of my league! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbit Posted November 17, 2020 Author Share Posted November 17, 2020 I’m glad you like the idea! It could start out very small. Honestly you all do so much teaching all the time, my thought was that it would be a week where you tell *us* to go out and educate people, rather than doing any different/special teaching yourselves. 😄 That looks like a great channel. I’ll definitely check it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cole Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Would be a cool thing to even start in the forum here pick a time span and do like a species spot light per week kind of thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too. My hubby says I have a problem. I stay up late (even on work nights) watching videos and reading up on aquariums, plants, fish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be easy to do could do polls to see what one is next kind of thing. Would be very interactive and a good learning opportunity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha yeah at first my wife used to tell me to stop watching videos before bed but every night I put on a fish related video, rarely a plant one just trying to find out whst plants can grow in just water aka for my fishtank (like a pothos) cory needs to start a network for 24/7 videos because he isn't busy enough (just kidding! He's a busy guy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
