Warning: A wall of text ahead. 
Firstly, the decision to recruit mods or interchange them is the decision of the Admin. In this case Rajiv-ji was nice enough to take opinion of the members and the majority agrees that there should be some form of shuffling to ensure the future stability of the site. If one or two members didn't agree, it will be inconsequential and irrelevant to entertain their whims. A forum after all functions like a democracy and thats the way it should remain.
Having said that I would add that simply appointing new mods is not going to magically solve any problems (and seriously I don't know what will).
This a niche community and it will never be able to compete with any of the international forums neither in scope nor in the quality of posts. No offense.
So...we should keep our expectations somewhat limited and hope that in the near future, more enthusiastic members register and increase the overall atmosphere of this place. Personally I feel its a really warm and fun place to be
and I have come to admire some of the folks here. So lets pool in and brainstorm ideas so we can figure out how to pull ourselves out of this situation instead of blocking new avenues by being egocentric.
Secondly, if stats are to go by this site is in a mess. Three topics per day is good for a beginner site not an advanced community.
The 'one member per day registration' thing is also an arbitrary data to judge a forum's health with. Anybody who has ever owned a forum
or been a moderator on one knows that most of these 'everyday registers' are made by bots or guests. Where else do they go after registering
and why the hell they do not make any posts. Also, the policy of hiding posts from guests here, (to ensure new registries) makes people register
just to check out whats going on in a topic or to lurk around the forum. These guests seldom post, or never do or will. My personal view is that this feature
should be removed as it serves little purpose because those who register to post will do so regardless.
So in short member count has got nothing to do with forum popularity and cannot be taken as any form of evidence to decide whether we need new mods or not.

Agreed totally. I am not on any aquarium forum other than Aquapetz so I can only speak for here. Yes the post quality needs to increase no matter the content of the thread. Folks should not just write 'nice work' and make a smiley and move on (heck...I do that too sometimes
gotta stop this habit). Each post must have some comprehensibility to it. Just the other day I saw a thread with a simple question about lighting on an international planted tank forum and all the replies were saturated with information. The hell, I learned a few tricks myself going through that thread. Very few people here do that, I am almost complaining because I am a newbie and a noob too compared to the folks here. The one person I can think of atm who takes time out to write down his thoughts is Romi (there must be some others too I am sure). I am sure we can follow in suit.
Other than this, I really don't know what to say. I won't comment about how many mods should be recruited nor the way that should be done. Thats not my job.
