Can we make more sub forums?

[Gouramiguy17]

Can we make a minnow subforum? Also can we make a red sherry shrimp subforum? Also can a mod move this over to forum suggestions and announcements.

Hi
thats a good idea, you should post it in the "there should be a profile for.." thread

I pm'd mike about this thread but you could see if another mod will move it for you.

Can you be more specific here? The term "minnow" can mean any of several species in the Cyprinidae family, for which we already have a subforum (http://www.fishlore.com/fishforum/cy...udes-goldfish/).

While any decision would be Mike's to make, my understanding is that there would need to be a sufficient quantity of posts about a topic before it justifies its own subforum.

there is also a freshwater invertebrate page for shrimp

I see the thread has been moved so that's good. You can send Mike a Private Message if you like requesting a new sub forum and see what he says. He won't mind you asking at all.

Yep, that is how it usually works.

Are we getting a lot of minnow posts? If so, I can create the sub-forum. If not lets just keep them under the more higher level (less specific) sections until we do get enough posts to create the sub-forum.

For minnows I am talking about rosy minnows and wcmm. There is a ghost shrimp sub forum so y can't there be a rcs sub forum? We get a couple questions about rcs.

Cherry shrimp sub-forum is here: http://www.fishlore.com/fishforum/cherry-shrimp/

Thanks for the suggestion!
