Unfortunately. we're not supposed to say here. Forum rules and all. We can recommend Dan's Fish and that's about it. although, sometimes other sites get out 😄

Tony, can you not or recommed someone to not tell me in pm please?

Hobbiest forum or revenue generator, or a bit of both. Another question for another day.

We don't make any money recommending Dan's Fish. Honestly the biggest driving factor of not talking about fish recommendations, is the emails we get asking us to take it down, it being slander, stolen pictures etc. All it takes is a bad shipment, upset customer, and an angry mob on the internet to all of a sudden take lots of time for our employees.

Ah, That makes a bunch more sense looking at it from that perspective . Thanks Cory.

For what it’s worth, As a consumer, Id be happy and it wouldn’t stop me from making a purchase if you did make something from the sale referral. There is nothing wrong with making money.

It's kinda just easier to keep it off the forum. We've had customers quit our brand because on our forum someone else recommended a vendor and they had a bad experience. We explained that we didn't recommend them. They didn't relent, because we moderate it, it's the same as us recommending them... Ok sure lol. Takes all types on the internet, so we  use rules that keep the unfun parts of the internet to a minimum.

Makes sense, thanks for doing what you do. I couldn’t moderate a forum and run a nationwide business without some rules too. Appreciate it.
