There have been several attempts to spam our list over the last few days. Some of them appear to be getting sophisticated enough to attempt join the list first and then send their junk mail. If they do that, junk mail may get thru and then the only thing I can do is to delete the posters them after the fact. >From the content of other spam messages, others think that because they sell pet fish related products that their advertisements are welcome. That is definitely against the policy of this list. Policy reminder: The list is about dwarf cichlids, primarily of the genus Apistogramma and related South Americans. African dwarfs also welcome.
