Good suggestion Rich! re: the STICKY or similar.....[notice I am being encouraging
]
Let me be the first to offer you a job
Click on your user CP, then Group Memberships, and join the Care Sheet Creation Group....it's Free even
There is a general format to follow, and I would be glad to help edit the final version [as would the other Care Sheet members I'm sure, lots of help usually follows one's initial work].
I agree it is a topic that deserves a Care Sheet, with links to old debates, and even some testimonials from those that ventured into a mixed species experiment such as yourself [both sides can even be represented].
Personally I dont recommend mixing [nor have I tried it..., so my opinion is just that, an opinion not based on experience mind you]...but as said by many already...there are those that will do whatever they want, regardless....we might as well help them to NOT fail at least.

Now, on the subject of Newbies...you are all hypocrites...every one of you
[not literally everyone of course] we
all started this hobby at some point, fresh and naive...and I can distinctly remember myself asking the crowd how to make a ff cx?, and how often to mist?, ect, ect, ect. Never once [in the good old days] did anyone tell me to "try the search feature you idiot". And I would hope we could start to be more tolerant of folks who are new to the hobby, and came here to our beloved DB to learn more and express their enthusiasm...however misguided at first.
Newbies, ect. are what keep the hobby fresh, and growing, and supply business for the community, and new ideas, and yes the enthusiasm that some of us have lost.
Noones nose should go up, we should quit poking fun of people; if you dont like a thread- dont read it, and if you can help someone- do so.
