    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Recent chytrid fungus narratives.

Recent federal listing of over 100 amphibians a result of the chytrid fungus being transmitted among captive populations and wild populations. Clearly a huge disruption to amphibian keepers and those using certain amphibians as feeders.

“In the animated documentary The Waiting, Karen Lips, professor of biology at University of Maryland, College Park, chronicles a mysterious mass disappearance she encountered across two field studies in Costa Rica and Panama in the early 1990s.”

The treatment “bath” noted by Dr. Lips can be found in this discussion.
