Make a donation to a coral transplant project

-

Hi, this is Uminchu.

How are you doing??

Recently, I've been creating various things with blender, a software program that allows the creation of 3D art.
For example, a juvenile southern reef fish.

See a 3D Candy-Box in Opensea by Umiunchu

Now that I can make a lot of things, I also made coral.

This time I pleased to announce that I will be making a donation to a coral transplant project.

Buy NFT of coral seedlings to donate.

    

Reasons for donating to coral transplant projects

In 2016, the corals around Ishigaki island (Sekisei Lagoon) beached all at once.
The corals in the area where ae usually play, became whiter day by day.
Finally, the surface was covered with algae.
When this happens, the zooxanthellae can no longer enter the coral.
The coral then became a mere rubble...

After that, I left Ishigaki island and move to the Okinawa main island.
I was astonished when I entered the sea of Cape Maeda.
Because in the five years I had been away from the main island, the coral and fish had diminished.
The once colorful coral had become nothing ore than rock.
It was sad to see the mass of what used to be coral that had turned into rock.

Time passed further, and I moved to Nara Prefecture (here is on ocean), so I could no longer easily go to the ocean.
Even though I miss the ocean of Okinawa, I cannot go there.
Now that I am not there, I want to help the organizations that are truly working there.
All profits from the coral NFT will be donated to this seedings.

Decided where to donate.

Let's make a 3DCG coral! I decided.
If I'm going to donate to a coral transplantation project, I should look for an organization that is doing good work and is likely to continue in the future!
So I read through the websites of several organization.

I decided to go with one of the organization.

Why did I decided on Aqua Planet, a non-profit organization?


  • To be able to participate in the program for 3,500 JPY per coral seedlings.
  • The program has been active for more than 15 years
  • The number of individual donors in 2021 has increased tremendously.
  • We can easily confirm that they are registered as a non-profit organization.
  • Must be active on the main island of Okinawa and Ishigaki island

NFT of coral seedlings

Listed 100 NFTs of coral seedlings in the OpenSea.
0.002ETH (Polygon chain) per piece.
If all of them are sold, it will be 0.2ETH (Polygon chain).
That is about 70,000 JPY.
After fee and other changes are deducted, I plan t transplant 10 ~ 13 coral seedlings and have them grow.

Buy NFT of coral seedlings to donate.

Secrets of the Clownfish Part 1

Hi, this is Uinchu. How are you doing?? This time I would like to introduce the Clown anemonefish. This is a fish that became famous in a Disney movie. See the NFT's of the clown anemonefish.  Anemone fish that can be seen in Japan. Anemonefish One-band anemone fish Clown anemonefish Yellow clownfish Pink anemonefish Saddleback colwnfish These are the six species of clownfish that can be seen in Japan. Why they live in sea anemone? Sea anemones and clownfish have a "symbiotic relationship". The tentacles of sea anemones have countless cells called cnidocysts that fire poisonous needles when they come in contact with foreign objects. This venom is used to paralyze and prey on fish and other animals. However, the anemonefish has a special mucus on its body surface that does not react to the stinging cells of the anemone. The clownfish is protected by the sea anemone. The sea anemone is protected by the clownfish, and the clownfish is protected by the sea anemone. They help ...

Hi, This is Uminchu. How are you feeling? This story is Just got an email that coral planting is complete. Coral planting is complete. I got e-mail form NPO on 14th March, what coral plantings completed for donations made on January 19 and January 25, 2022. The coral plate says "nft_uminchu" as I requested. This was a great pleasure. The proceeds from the NFT, which was promoted on Twitter, were donated. It's not just me, it's the love of everyone who bought it. So I wanted to plate my Twitter ID.      Where this coral was planted This coral grows in the sea of Ishigaki Island. It is believed to be planted offshore of this Painu-hama. Painu-hama is a man-made island, but the sea is also beautiful. About the NPO to which I donated I donated this time to NPO Aqua Planet .(Japanese Only) Read the blog when I donate. How long does it take for corals to become ready to spawn? The corals planted this time are of a certain size and will be able to spawn in about three year...
