可口可乐具有7倍的秘密成分。Chanel第5号的东西只有几个人知道,我们都看过一部电影,发现秘密公式是情节。和真相,我们大多数人都知道或拥有一两个秘密。不幸的是,这种爱好通常也是如此。由于某种原因,我们很多人都保留了自己成功或失败的秘密。
现在,我明白为什么我们可能不想分享我们的失败,只吹捧我们的成功,但我认为,保密您在做什么,而不是与我们的同伴业余爱好者分享它们对任何人都不是有益的。我意识到互联网既是讨论的好论坛,又是开放邀请的邀请。结果,我认为人们倾向于将自己的秘密保留在自己身上,尤其是当他们正在尝试的事情与“做事的标准方式”不同时。
The first secret everyone needs to accept is that everyone loses things. Yes, I hate to admit it, but I have actually had fish and coral die. And unfortunately these losses are often for either dumb reasons or for reasons we cannot explain. I have lost fish and corals for so many dumb reasons, it some times keeps me up night.
The fish that jumped out for the few seconds when my back was turned and the cover was off, or the coral that died because I was too lazy to reglue it in place when I saw that it was about to tip into a more aggressive neighbor, are just a couple of things that keep me up at night. But I rarely share these occurrences with others. Fortunately though, I have found out a fair number of my fellow hobbyists share many of the same secrets.
Even worse is when the losses I’ve had seemingly occurred for no reason that I could discern and – until recently – I thought only happened to me. These are the kind of things that should not be kept as secrets. An example of how important it is not to keep secrets when we lose things is when the topic of when two new pests came to light. Black bugs andMontipora-吃片两个体育sts I had neither heard of nor thought I had encountered until they were brought up online.
只有在某人分享了他们的损失和对他们所观察到的东西的“秘密”之后,许多人才开始讨论他们的广泛性,以及删除它们或限制损害的可能方法。随着我们继续变得更加好转,几乎可以使一切都活着,我们还发现,越来越多的害虫可以在短时间内可能在我们花费我们几年的时间里实现的时间来破坏。因此,我们不应将任何害虫作为秘密。它很可能不仅影响我们。
还,不是keeping secrets should not just be limited to the internet. A case in point. I ran into a friend who loves zoanthids and a shop that we both frequent had just gotten in a bunch. When I told him what they had he told me he had stopped going there as he had found that his last purchases were infested with a zoanthid eating nudibranch and he was having a difficult time getting it out of his system.
I had also encountered a similar problem, but since I get coral from a wide-range of sources, I could not pin down as to where the pest came from. Only by discussing what were similar problems were we able to pin it down to the source. The best thing though is that when we both told the shop owner about the problem, he accepted that there was a problem. This may not have occurred if both of us had not talked with one another and then approached him.
我知道我们不喜欢谈论不起作用的事情,但是在这种爱好中,仍然有很多反复试验。但是,通过不关注不起作用的秘密,我们可以减少许多在业余爱好中仍然猖ramp的错误。在这方面,我强烈建议您如果您正在尝试新事物或做不同的事情,请尝试找到其他正在做并比较笔记的人。
First, it is always good to have a friend who is trying or doing the same thing that you are. Second, every tank is different. So different, in fact, I am confident if two individuals had the same equipment and same livestock and we let them do what they wanted, in a short time each tank would look like they had nothing in common. Finding someone who is using the same piece of equipment as you, is a good way to see if they are having the same success or the same problems as you are.
尽管随着时间的推移,设备的所有进步都取得了进步,但不幸的是,仍然有很多设备无法胜任。但是,仍然有很多人也没有正确使用它。这就是为什么我建议,如果您正在尝试以新的方式尝试新事物甚至旧的东西,请找到其他也正在使用它并比较您的结果的人。不要让自己的成功或失败。
Even better, if you do have similar problems, share them with the manufacturer or supplier, and I don’t mean by flaming them online. No one making a product wants it to fail, so if there is a problem that happens to more than one of us, they usually want to fix it. So contact them directly and let them know the issue you are having. As someone who has beta-tested plenty of products, I am fairly confident in saying that most manufacturers do listen when there is a problem.
In the same vein, if you have a product that works well most of the time and on most things, but you notice that some fish or corals do not do well with it, share this as well. In this regard, Sanjay and I often compare notes and trade frags to see how the same coral does in our different tanks. Our tanks are fairly similar in terms of stocking and water parameters, so we always find it interesting when certain things do differently or color up differently in our tanks.
One of our more interesting findings is thatAcroporamilleporadoes not do well in either of our tanks under LED lighting. We find this surprising as most other corals do as well, or better under these lights than they did under metal halides. But under LEDs these corals simply do not grow, or grow incredibly slowly, compared with how they grew and thrived when our tanks were lit with metal halides. We have reported this finding to our LEDs manufacturer and they are now working on trying to understand why this occurs and what a possible solution to this may be.
由于我再次出去讲话,所以我现在有机会与许多老朋友交谈并进行比较。最近,当我们被要求在休斯顿的沼泽会议上讲话时,我与托尼·瓦尔加斯(Tony Vargas),马克·列文森(Marc Levenson)和我们的主人本·范德诺特(Ben Vandernoort)一起闲逛。
Obviously when you spend three days almost constantly with reefers who are as into the hobby as much you are, you talk a lot about what you are doing, what your experience has been with different equipment, fish or corals and over time you reveal and find out some of the secrets that these people have. I hope I’m not speaking out of school, but since they speak publicly, I’m assuming their little secrets are out there in the public domain.
托尼的秘密是,他是keepin问题所困扰g phosphate from entering his tank. He looks at the contents for any food or additive he adds to his tanks to make sure that the amount of phosphate being added is minimized. As a result, Tony has little problems with algae and rarely has to resort to using phosphate removing compounds.
In contrast to this, Marc’s secret is that he really doesn’t worry about phosphate and if he does have an algae problem he just adds snails by the hundred to take care of them. My secret is that I try to do both things to keep algae from becoming problematic. Ben does not really have a secret, per se, other than he listens and reads almost constantly about the hobby and tries to evaluate everything with a very discerning eye.
He also is one of the most generous hobbyists I know, as he donates not only his time to educate and help fellow hobbyists, but on more than one occasion he has donated a considerable number of valuable frags whenever he sees a cause that needs help. While his tank is very much “new school,” he is old school in how he is willing to help out fellow hobbyists in need. I think as a result of this, a lot of hobbyists are happy to share their secrets with him. As a result, I think it shows in how successful his tanks are.
As I noted above, everyone in this hobby has a secret or two as to why they are succeeding or where they failed. In my opinion, we need to share these secrets more. In in order for that to happen, we need to be less critical when someone is doing things differently than we are and also not be afraid to admit when we fail. Not to sound cliché, but when one of us succeeds and learns new things — we all succeed. So let’s not keep our secrets to ourselves.
