Trophs.com and Petrochromis.com

Ya huh I've always liked trophs but never had any and not looked much at forums for them though I'm gonna break my salt tank down clean up the tank and set it back up for some trophs gonna get my first colony going

There's a local tropheus & petrochromis club or club sub section as well.

I think even with all the derailed threads and off topic post the random threads here have more info than that site, having a retailer take over is probably not gonna help it much.

I have seen it happen before... talk about banning people for having an opinion lol

Lol, trophs.com was ran that way before the change.

Bunch is nazis modding that place.

[eklikewhoa]

single minded and no way except their way.

Yeah, I keep seeing a scenario where the sponsors of the site who are retailers/importers pull out their support. I hope I get proven wrong on that though.

Just got this email:


Hi, I’m Greg Miceli owner of LittleAfricaAquatics. Cyphos.com, Trophs.com, Petrochromis.com, Cichlidkeeping.com and Africancichlidforum.com are now under the new ownership of LittleAfricaAquatics. As you know the sites have been down for a while. To restore them and keep them alive I decided to purchase them from Mark. I have no interest in running these sites like a dictatorship. The sites are an open forum and will continue to be. Going forward I don’t plan on making any changes to the sites, I’m just stepping in to preserve them. Mark and others have done a great job building these sites. Mark will stay on as a consultant and help me restore the sites prominent reputation. These are great sites that we all enjoy. With all the terrific sponsors, moderators and members the sites will continue to grow and prosper. I will honor all the current sponsorships and they will have the option to renew their sponsorship when their dues are up. I also will invite new sponsors and moderators to join this great community.

Let’s get back to the true meaning of the sites, enjoying the hobby, joking around and expressing our passions. We can leave behind the bickering, cheap shots and nonsense. I look forward to the journey ahead with you all as we enjoy this amazing hobby.

Sincerely,
Greg Miceli

Yeah, me too. I wanna see how many of the current sponsors remain after their contracts are up...

[eklikewhoa]

Wasn't there some other forums owned by the same group? Think there was an apisto forum as well.


either way, Gregg has been pretty fair for the most part in my time in the hobby dealing with him and honestly I don't think he could do any worse than what it was.
