I've always been a little suspicious about posts with "MISMATCH" in
the
path (see below). And when they start using phrases like "homo
hebes" my suspicions become conclusions.


I don't see the post you mention, but if you're referring to Buxbaum -
he's great poster (imo) - technical, on-topic, does his research,
never a mean thing said to anyone.


I hate to disagree with my favorite poster, but yes, that was me. And
Buxbaum did use the phrase "homo hebes" in the post you missed. I've
had a few Jewish friends over the decades and that phrase really ticked
me off.

And now you tell me he's probably German. That makes such language even
worse. Sorry, but I'll stick to my opinion unless he offers an
explanation and an apology.

And now, back to fish :-). I've got a parttime job in a woodworkers
store (another hobby) and I can now afford that 40 gallon breeder tank
I've been drooling over. Now if I can just decide which rare species
of rainbowfish I want to put in it!
