Gomer's DBTC ledger

[Gomer]

I know that datamining and tracking is still underway in a more formal system, but I was bored and decided to datamine my own record lol. I'm starting with the easy part (what I have given) since I can sort by thread starters. Next (maybe tonight?) I'll go through what I have received (which will show my horrible record at killing birds nests ).

dbtc-x meteor shower cyphastrea Died..then came back from the dead…but might have just been a brief visit. I returned it back to the neglected corner and will check in a couple months lol.

There are two other birds nests that I got. One Ponape and another I can't remember. I do know that I killed them both. They just withered away for some reason I still can't figure out. I've given up on non-green birds nests.




I need to work harder at growing what I have better so that I can clear out some debt. Lacking stable parameters in a 40g (~35g total volume) tank are probably a big issue. I got a pair of drew's aquadosers to help stabilize things.

Good work, Tony. That's a lot of 1st gen. Did you think it was that much?

Not really. I knew I had a added a fair bit, but not that many 1st gens. I'm more curious to how I've done with my 2nd gen+ distributions compared to what I received. So far, there is a bit of pride in knowing what I have pulled off in just 1 year of participating on the program, but it also teaches me what I have and haven't been good at and what I should improve on (as I fill in what I have been able to distribute..such as sucking hardcore at bird's nest lol).

It is also good perspective for new people who think "I'm new and have nothing to offer". I joined the club with a few brown corals and had NOTHING to offer for a few months. I took in a lot (which you'll soon see) and really got into the groove of getting nice stuff to spread around. I feels damn good to be able to spread nice corals to people.

Yeah unfortunately that micro you gave me fell victim to the "I forgot it was ontop of the tank" syndrome. You'd think corals being out of the water for 12 hours wouldn't be an issue

The Tyree toadstool that you got me...that thing refuses to grow. It's latched onto the rock that the sunburst favia is attached to and just sits there. I'm pretty sure that it hasn't grown a bit at all.

 

[Gomer]

no worries mike. it happens.

Eric, it grows pretty fast for me and seemingly so for phong. I can't grow the easy birds nest worth a damn. Maybe toadstools hate you in the same fashion lol.

 

[Ibn]

Hmm, interesting. I can't grow birds nest either.

 

[Gomer]

wow..that's a lot of threads. I probably missed a couple here or there, so if you notice something missing, please shoot me a PM.
