This is my own take on DBTC. It will work a little differently, but it is based on the HONOR SYSTEM. If you can't have a little fun in this hobby without making a buck, don't try and join the ring. If you break the ring your reputation in the community will suffer! :duh:
This will NOT immediately increase the number of corals/frags in the community, but it will help improve our diversification.
I will give one frag of zoanthids to the first person who agrees to join the ring, you do so by posting in this thread that you want it.
You have one week to pick up the frag. After you get the frag, you will post one of your own frags on this thread and someone else will offer to take it. This will continue until I decide to close the ring, at which time I will take the active frag and the ring will end (I will probably keep it running for a long time to see how far we can get).
You must post a different frag than the one you are getting. You may not sell the frag you get. You have one week to find someone else to take over the ring by taking your frag (the new one you are offering). If no one wants to take your frag, it probably means you are not offering anything good and you will have to list another frag in order to keep the ring going. For this particular ring, we will only trade mounted zoanthids.
To summarize:
I list a frag
You post saying you want the frag and will take over the ring
You pick up the frag from me
You have one week to find someone else to take over the ring
You post a frag and if someone takes it, you are finished with your responsibilities in the ring.
Basically this is a BREAK EVEN strategy based on paying it forward.
I will start the ring with Randy's Super Green Kiwi Zoas, pictured here under 250w 10k and again under T5 actinics. This coral grows incredibly fast and from one frag I have 6 in under one month. It is very easy to frag and grows fat nodules that are easy to tear apart. This coral comes from Prattreef.
Pickup in Manhattan (near Union Square) any time of day this week.
Keep the ring going!
