CA2OR Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Wanted to let you guys know I stopped by Westside today and spoke with Tim....he was VERY displeased with still housing the Ponape colony and was going to let it die....he asked me to take it and after speaking with Snowpunk and getting his approval I did. I do not have room for this....it is taking up almost half of my LED tank so please get this thing out of here....if I still have this in 30 days I am going to either cut it into large frags and sell for $10 or simply take it out of my tank and see how it does in a bucket on my patio. I want to express that this was VERY uncool to leave this in Tims possession for this long, I posted over a month ago that he wanted it out and nothing was done. Not cool....he extended his hand and real estate in his tanks and it was allowed to become a burden.

CA2OR Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 Re: Attn SPS GOC contestants and officials Michael...do you want to take half the colony? Snowpunk has agreed to take a chunk too....maybe the other half Sent from my Droid using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wegotjs Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Seems like there was a little stink about this before. Maybe all that want frags from it, that paid in to goc should get them. I lost mine so I would like a new piece.I think a few frags should go back to tim for his time , to sell in his store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerald525 Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Sorry Tim, I didn't know you were still holding it. I didn't see it and assumed it had found a new home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowman Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I still think it should be fragged, sold, and the proceeds go to future GOC's and maybe some should go to TFT, or maybe a local charity like the Kyron Horman fund. I bought Mick's place in the GOC. My frag also died, so I would like another frag of it too. I am willing to pay a fee for that also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 The proceeds should go to the GOC either for the present one for more prizes or for future ones. I think that's in the rules somewhere because this was brought up again. I don't have a problem with selling frags to those that want them but I'm not in charge LOL and Lowman....

CA2OR Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 ok....here are some pic's of the colony. Yes that is bubble algae and yes those are aptasia I took some cell phone shots in hopes of giving a better display of the color....it isn't as white as it looks in these pic's...there is more color in the front and top.

CA2OR Posted August 22, 2010 Author Share Posted August 22, 2010 I took this pic just before I centered the colony.....now the color shows a bit better so I will snap some new one's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA2OR Posted August 22, 2010 Author Share Posted August 22, 2010 I am considering fragging this because I do not want the bubble algae. Either that or I want someone to come get this soon. I have NOT cut a single frag off and whoever comes can attest. But.....I think I want a frag or 2....anyone object? Gonna use small frag in LED tank for test and other one in main tank to compare color and growth to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CA2OR Posted August 22, 2010 Author Share Posted August 22, 2010 Re: Attn SPS GOC contestants and officials Yep....what time can you be here? Might need a bucket...I just spilled BBQ ashes in mine....I am in Beaverton are you close to Lowman?

Michael7979 Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 No where near Lowman. Can we meet somewhere? Hate driving out to Beaverton! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA2OR Posted August 23, 2010 Author Share Posted August 23, 2010 well.....I don't have a bucket. So unfortunately I cannot. Sorry, if this was just frags that would be different but it is like a football and I simply don't have anything that big to carry it in.

lewisriverfisherman Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 well i guess i would not mind a nice size frag of this if we are not gonna sell it. i almost cant believe that there is not more discussion on this at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R-3 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 So what is the decision on this piece? Is it going back to Jody? Are we fragging it up the rest the way and splitting between GOC contestants?? Is it going to TFT? Are we gonna frag it up and donate the money to TFT? Just wondering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I don't think there has been a decision. Why would it go back to Jody? We paid for the entire colony. Last I heard from Frank, the thought was to maybe auction it off for more GOC prizes. I think it should go to the GOC fund since it was from the funds that we bought that. Who is in charge of the GOC fund? I do agree we should let Tim have some of them to sell. That was incredibly nice of him to keep that colony for as long as he did.

Michael7979 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Well give all the GOC contestants that had their frag die another frag! Just figure out a way to tell the difference between the 2 frags if you give the current GOC contestants another frag, since they still are competing. I was just trying to help out.......... if it isn't needed then fine. CA2OR if you want me to get it PM me your address and phnoe number and I'll reach you that way.
