Fish keeping Jamaica, Am I getting soft in my criticism about problematic fish keeping topics ?

 So I have looked at several shares I have done over the years. I have realized that the frame of visitors to my youtube channel have changed. Some of my so - called good friends no longer publish on youtube. a few have died and some have become my nemesis. I have always been a Christian throughout my life. I have experienced several critical slurs and barbs and innuendos by persons i have been associated with over the years. I have chosen my battles won most and lost a few. I an tired of the games and fights it only makes me age more faster.

There is alot to be said about fish keeping. The youtube platform has afforded me the opportunity to share my ideas, learn new ideas and collaborate with awesome people on separate and combined projects. This experience has allowed me to grow personally as an individual and have shaped my perspective on the path that i should take in fish keeping. Although many suggest that the " fish keeping community" exist, that's it. Just a community not a community of friends. Many fish keepers hate competition so they try very hard to belittle each other. I use my association with international fish keepers to be more learned about the hobby.

So my trolls are working really hard to get my channel on youtube off the internet. Whether or not they become successful, really does'nt phase me anymore. I am like not caring a bit. Life continues with or without youtube. With me there yes or no they will always be that " a troll". A ugly beast wanting love but gets it no-where other than from its parents or its look alike.

So in answering the question am I getting soft in critical expression. No I am not, just being reminded by a thought I have learnt years ago, " sometimes the best way to win a fight is to walk away". Also I am more enthused with emphasizing love and gratitude to my audience and facilitating shared knowledge throughout the virtual space. So that's my come back, Thanks for reading this post. Its not my regular post theme but I thought I had to put this out there.

One question bothers me though, so you hate me that much, cool, your life, why subscribe to my channel or blog? I think this fetish with my work is mental case needing serious medical responses.

Regards

Native aquarium fish in Jamaica

  The value of Jamaican Gully fish In Jamaica, there are several water ways. These water ways originates both naturally and conveniently by humans. These waters exist in the form of manmade gullies, water drains, streams, rivers, and to some extent man made run off ponds design to collect excess water from land during heavy rainfall. Jamaica was originally called Xaymica by its past earlier ancestors, referred to as Caribs, Arawaks and Amerindians. Prior to the discovery of the West by the Europeans, the natives of the Caribbean including Jamaica had great interest in fishing, farming and hunting. After over 400 years, fishing continues to play a significant role in both the economic as well as the natural aesthetics of Jamaica. Angling as well as net fishing facilitates the bulk of Jamaica’s fishing industry. Interestingly, ornamental fish keeping is not considered much of a value today,   yet holding superb potential especially for the export market . In Jamaica there a...

What is holding back the ornamental fish keeping Industry in Jamaica?

  What is holding back the ornamental fish keeping Industry in Jamaica?   To some like myself looking from outside inside, the typical view would be this industry does not exist in Jamaica. You might be surprised at the heavy investments being made by large players within the industry both regionally, internationally and locally here in Jamaica. The openness if there is any such word, of this industry to new players within the market or new ideas and investments are considered closed and not open for admittance. Based on some research in which I have done, there are several private ornamental fish farms in Jamaica, growing, breeding, harvest and shipping ornamental fishes overseas. Some of the fish from these farms might just find themselves in some local petshops, why is so!?. The only reasons why this is so, is partly due to the imperfection identified in finange, colour and genetical structure of fish bred on these farms. This is a sad situation but as an enthusiast, ...

Jamaica‘s Position within the ornamental fish industry, responding to Shane Willis Article

Responses to article, indeed the level of industry players within the Jamaican Ornamental fish industry is minute compared to other similar industry. It is a fact that Jamaica is located in the tropics. Facing numerous natural disasters ranging from flooding , tropical storms and hurricanes. Ornamental fish farms not re-established after natural disasters are poorly planned and structure. Lets look at Florida, It faces numerous tropical storms yearly, with thousands of persons loosing homes, assets and investment within the pan angle alone. Yet one of North America’s largest fish farming Industry is able to manoeuvre through these challenges.   Some of their pond setups are as large as half a football field, some might even be larger. Steps are taken to manage excess water flow as a result of flooding .   The absence of proper planning within an industry such as this will result in much disaster. In addition, their systems are so designed to have automation should in case ...
