Why isn't PC referenced as a source of aquarium care info on Fishbase.org?

After following links in another thread (...viewtopic.php?f=2&t=41844) about RTC in Florida, I noticed that the Fishbase datasheet on the RTC has a link in its Special Reports section entitled "Check for Aquarium maintenance." If you click that link, it offers you links to Fishgeeks and the Aquarium Wiki Encyclopedia for additional information on aquarium care of the RTC. I found similar links listed for other cats, too.

Why isn't PlanetCatfish listed as a resource? It seems like it ought to be, right?

Never mind, I think I answered my own question. While PC is not listed as a link under "Check for Aquarium maintenance," PC is listed as a link under the adjacent option called "Check for Species Fact Sheets" http://www.fishbase.us/summary/FactShee ... 6421&src=1

I suppose that's good enough. Cheers, Eric

Yes, that's right. The process is every decade or so, I give them a massive spreadsheet (CSV file) with all the species in it and they update fishbase. That said, I don't know what the difference is between the two sections - I will ask the next time I submit data (2019).
